Congress marks 'Bhagoda Divas' in Delhi

September 16, 2016 16:14

Congress activists today observed 'Bhagoda Divas' in the national capital, protesting against the alleged absence of Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and his ministers from Delhi which is currently reeling under chikungunya and dengue outbreak.

Leading the protests which were held in all the 70 assembly constituencies of the national capital, Delhi Congress president Ajay Maken attacked Kejriwal and Lt Governor Najeeb Jung for being out of the city instead of helping people at a time of crisis.

"It is extremely unfortunate that while Delhiites are facing an epidemic-like situation, the chief minister was campaigning in Punjab and later went to Bangalore. Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia is holidaying in Finland and even the lt governor was in the United States. One of the BJP mayors is also on a foreign jaunt," Maken said.
