BJP's Chief Ministerial Candidate Dr. Harsh Vardhan has said that it will make Delhi the first pollution free green capital of the world. He said that Delhi will become such capital city which will be emulated by the entire world. BJP wants that India become the world leader again and the start is made from Delhi.
He said that ur government will take path-breaking measures in every sphere to ensure that Delhi in recognized as the Green Capital of the World by 2020. We will set global standards in cleaning our water, our air and our river. Under our “Every house a power house” scheme, we will ensure full funding for solar roof-top installations through soft loans from financial institutions of which there will be a subsidy of 60%, 30% from State Government and 30% from Central Government. A law will be enacted to enable every home to sell excess power to the grid and instead of paying high electric bills, actually earn revenue.
He further added that all government buildings will “switch on the sun” and be powered by solar energy by 2015. Our government will empower Delhi State Industrial Development Corporation to swiftly establish dedicated units with renowned private sector partners for the manufacture of the hardware requirements such as solar panels, mirrors, wires, batteries, inverters, and transformers. All locally manufactured hardware for Delhi’s consumption will enjoy sales tax holiday for 10 years.
Through our program called “Change the bulbs”, we will replace all energy-inefficient lighting in public areas and buildings with the most energy-efficient ones, particularly LED. This will save upto 80% electricity. Fuel pellets will be made from bio-waste as an alternate fuel for the largescale consumption in commercial establishments.
Delhi cannot be the world’s green capital if the river at it’s heart is dirty. We will launch a massive program to clean and re-energise the Yamuna and restore it to it’s former glory. We will develop the riverbank and ensure that it becomes a tourist attraction of international standards. We will also ensure that no untreated sewage flows into the river.
Wastewater recycling projects will be initiated across the city on a massive scale. All public parks shall have water recycling. Rainwater harvesting will be made mandatory and will be strictly enforced. Wastewater shall be used to generate methane for commercial use.
