AAP govt completes one year in power, Kejriwal presents report card
New Delhi, Feb 14 (IBNS): The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government is on Sunday marking the completion of one year of being in power.
To reach out to the citizens of the Delhi, Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal tweeted: "Last year, on this day, Delhi fell in love with AAP. This bonding is deep n everlasting."
To mark on year of his governance, Kejirwal also announced that he is available on call from 11 AM to 1 PM. People can directly ask him questions on any matter.
"Do u hv any Q from Del govt? I, alongwith my cabinet, will directly answer ur Qs. Call at 011-41501367, 41501383, 23346658 betn 11AM to 1 pm," Kejriwal posted.
On this day, Kejriwal announced that his government will announce "benefit lakhs of people."
Kejriwal said his cabinet is ready to provide explanations to any question.
"We completed one year today. Now the servants of the people are standing before their masters to provide explanations," the Delhi CM sad.
The two-hour programme is being conducted from the NDMC Convention Centre in Connaught Place.
At the occasion, Kejriwal promised to restore water connections for unauthorized colonies. "We stand firm on our commitment for cheap water. We have been working on this," he said.
Last week, Kejriwal announced that the second phase of the odd-even vehicle scheme will be implemented in the national capital from April 15 till the end of the month.
Addressing a press conference, Kejriwal had said, "81 per cent of Delhiites who interacted with the government through phone calls, website or neighbourhood gatherings voted in favour of the traffic rules. This rule can be applicable for 15 days in every month."
Last year, on this date, a tsunami hit Delhi Assembly polls in the form of Arvind Kejriwal as his Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) knocked down Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the Congress to register a landslide victory in the national capital to form a government for the second time.
Winning 67 seats out of the total 70, the AAP surpassed the figures that were projected by exit polls.
Starting another innings in his political career, Kejriwal, who had shocked Delhi by resigning as the Delhi Chief Minister last year Feb only after 49 days in power, apologised to the people before coming to power.
After completing a year, AAP has now come up with a new slogan: "Pehla Saal Bemisaal."
