Thousands of protestors led by Delhi BJP President vijay Goel Gheraod the residence of Delhi CM Sheila Dikshit against the fraud whereby the Delhi government had collected 100 Rupee each from slum dwellers for getting the houses allotted to them under the Rajiv Ratan Awas Yojana. Just before the last assembly elections Sheila Dikshit had lured voters by promising them houses. The protest march began from BJP central office at Ashoka road and culminated at the Motilal Nehru raod residence of Delhi CM.
Though the demonstration was peaceful and Vijay Goel wanted to present a memorandum to the CM but despite that Goel along with hundreds of supporters were bundled into waiting buses and transported to the Tughlaq Road Police Station after being arrested.
The recent CAG report too which Sheila Dikshit had cleverly tabled on the last day of the assembly session to avoid heat, had clearly indicted Sheila Government on this issue apart from numerous other ones for gross corruption and malpractices rampant in her government.
The report said that Delhi Government’s target to construct a whopping 4-lakh low-cost housing units under this Programme but reveals how ill prepared and ill- uited government agencies are to address the city’s housing woes. Flawed tendering processes, delays in identifying land and starting
construction, and cost overruns due to completion lags are just some of the defects that the auditor has red-flagged.
Goel said that CAG has declared Sheila government to be lacking behind in all aspects of governing and administration leading to rampant corruption in all sectors of government resulting in swindling of thousands of crores of public money.
He said that he was the first one to raise the voice on corruption in CWG and despite the Shunglu committee report which was appointed by none other than the Prime Minister of India Sheila Government didn’t budged and on the contrary raised pitch on mechanisms of Shunglu committee.
