Basuri Swaraj accuses AAP government
Delhi BJP President Virendra Sachdeva is at the accident site with MP Bansuri Swaraj. Sachdeva has said that this is clearly an accident caused by the lack of cleaning of drains and it is a case of drain water backflowing very fast into the basement of the coaching center. The criminal negligence of the Delhi government is responsible for this accident. Water Board Minister Atishi and local MLA Durgesh Pathak should take responsibility and resign. Delhi BJP President Virendra Sachdeva has said that it is very sad that even after about 4 hours of the accident, the concerned minister Atishi has not reached the accident site in Old Rajendra Nagar. Instead of coming to the accident site and working for the relief of the victims, the minister is only doing paperwork sitting at home. Her doing so shows the insensitivity and inhumanity of not only Minister Atishi but the entire government. She has not come to the accident site till 11.40 pm.
