He asserted that claims of a breakdown in civic governance were an attempt to mislead the public and deflect attention from AAP’s own administrative failures. Addressing the issue through an official statement, the Mayor said the MCD was functioning efficiently and in close coordination with the Delhi government under the guidance of Chief Minister Rekha Gupta.

He added that recent interactions between the civic body and the Delhi government reflected mutual cooperation rather than confrontation.
