G20 facelift: AAP, BJP vie for credit

THOUGH agencies of both the AAP-led Delhi government and BJP-led Central government are making all possible efforts to ensure beatification of the city ahead of the G20 Summit, a war for credit for the work has erupted between them.

The AAP dispensation is claiming to carry out beautification or redevelopment works from the city government’s fund while the BJP is claiming whatever works related to G20 are being done by the Delhi government and the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD), they are being done with the funds given by the Central government.
