New Delhi, July 23
Though the elevated flyover from Vikaspuri to Meera Bagh is to be inaugurated by Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal tomorrow, former West Delhi MP Mahabal Mishra along with hundreds of Congress workers unofficially inaugurated it today saying that his party had allotted funds for construction of the flyover.
Mishra on this occasion said while constructing the flyover, the AAP government has made a loss of Rs 43 crore to the government exchequer, but the Chief Minister blatantly lies that he has saved crores of rupees in the construction. The truth is the Congress government had sanctioned Rs 560 crore in June 2012 for this flyover.
DPCC president Ajay Maken at a press conference on July 21 remarked how the flyover from Vikaspuri to Meerabagh was tendered for Rs 407 crore in February 2013, but the AAP government has spent Rs 450 crore on it and still the work like horticulture, rain harvesting, etc is pending.
