With weeks left to go for the Delhi Assembly elections, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convenor Arvind Kejriwal on Saturday announced a series of guarantees for tenants in the national capital, including free electricity and water.
“Across Delhi, we have provided free electricity and water to residents. However, it is unfortunate that tenants do not get these benefits. Today, I want to announce that after the elections, if our government is formed, we will introduce a system ensuring tenants also receive free electricity and water,”
Kejriwal did not elaborate on why tenants do not receive these benefits. He said that tenants have often praised Delhi’s schools, hospitals and free bus services, but they have expressed anguish over not receiving free electricity and water services that other residents get.
