'All agencies - state, Centre, MCD-have worked on G20'

But the minister, who holds several portfolios including finance and the Public Works Department, added that those who say they have done all the work are "drunk on arrogance". She also told HT in an interview that the state government plans to leverage the experience gained during preparations for the global event to improve infrastructure in the Capital.
Edited excerpts:

The G20 Summit is next week. How prepared is Delhi for the event?

In the last two months, all agencies that manage roads and other public infrastructure such as parks have worked together to beautify the city. The entire Pragati Maidan complex has been revamped, and nearby roads have been beautified and relaid. Delhi is ready to welcome the delegates.

Both the BJP and the Delhi government have claimed credit for the city's makeover. What has been the role of state government?
