MCD Row: BJP Hits Back at AAP, Alleges Welfare Fund Diversion
Mayor Raja Iqbal Singh today strongly refuted the Aam Aadmi Party’s (AAP) allegations regarding compassionate appointments and the misuse of the MCD Teacher Welfare Fund. He accused the AAP of delaying crucial appointments and withholding welfare funds during its tenure.
Singh asserted that the BJP-led MCD administration is now actively working to address these long-standing issues, releasing pending funds and expediting the appointment process.
He further alleged that the AAP’s accusations were a mere ploy to engage in petty politics and sabotage the welfare initiatives aimed at improving the lives of MCD teachers. The Mayor called for a transparent investigation into the AAP’s handling of the fund.
This latest clash highlights the deepening political divide within the MCD, with serious implications for the welfare of thousands of teachers and their families. The accusations and counter-accusations raise serious questions about the accountability and transparency of the previous administration, demanding a thorough examination of the financial records.
