Congress attacks AAP for ‘total failure’ in first 49 days


New Delhi: As AAP government completes 49 days in office — the tenure of its first stint, Congress on Friday mounted a blistering attack on Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, accusing him of “total failure” in governance due to “excessive” focus on containing dissidence in the party. Delhi Congress Chief Ajay Maken said the entire city was suffering due “absence of governance” and particularly hit out at Kejriwal for “deteriorating” financial position of the government.


“The internal fight in AAP has seriously affected governance in Delhi. The Chief Minister is only focussing on party affairs. There is a total absence of governance. Kejriwal has totally failed to deliver,” Maken said. The former Union Minister also accused Kejriwal of failing to “rein in” private power distribution companies and said instead of giving around Rs 1,670 crore to the discoms per annum under the power subsidy scheme, government should have ensured transparency in the sector and passed on the benefits to consumers.


“There is a deficit of Rs 4,500 crore in the financial year 2014-15. There has been a huge shortfall in revenue collection. The situation is very worrying. The development scenario in Delhi is really scary,” Maken said.
