New Delhi [India] March 21 (ANI): Delhi Assembly Leader of Opposition Atishi on Friday targeted Delhi Minister Parvesh Verma for making wrong statements about the officers of the Delhi government.
Addressing a press conference, she said these are the same officers who have worked in Delhi even in adverse circumstances in the last 10 years.
“PWD Minister of Delhi Government, Parvesh Verma, is saying wrong things about the officers of Delhi Government… But these are the same officers who have worked in Delhi even in adverse circumstances in the last 10 years… These are the officers who have provided good infrastructure to the government hospitals in Delhi…,” Atishi said.
This comes after Delhi Minister Parvesh Verma ordered the suspension of the Public Works Department (PWD) executive engineer while inspecting drainages in the national capital.
“The cleaning of drains is the responsibility of the PWD department, which is not happening. This is why I have ordered that the XEN here be suspended. All officers have been told that if they do not work properly, action will be taken. We can’t leave Delhi, our capital, like this,” Verma told reporters.
The minister said that the entire system of Delhi had “broken down” in the last 10 years while adding that strict instructions have been issued to government officials that negligence would not be tolerated. Verma asserted that the newly elected government was not shying away from hard work and was out on the streets.
“There are several issues. We, too, have decided that we will not shy away from working hard. We will make these officers work. The entire system of Delhi had broken down, and it was almost on the brink of collapse. For those who have not worked for the last 10 years, we will make all such officers work. Our government is out on the ground. We have instructed the officers that negligence will not be tolerated at all.” Verma said. (ANI)
