congress leader Devendra Yadav attacks BJP-AAP
delhi Pradesh congress Committee President Devendra Yadav expressed deep grief over this accident and directly blamed bjp and aam aadmi party (AAP). He said, “This accident is not an accident, but the result of corruption and negligence. bjp ruled the Municipal Corporation of delhi (MCD) for 15 years and AAP for the last 3 years, but both encouraged unauthorized construction instead of stopping it. Municipal councilors and officers become 'lantern mafia' and extort money from every house.
Devendra Yadav demanded from the government
There should be a high level judicial inquiry into the accident
Strict action should be taken against the guilty officers
The families of the deceased should be given Rs 10 lakh each and the injured Rs 2 lakh each as compensation immediately
Major changes should be made in the building rules of delhi, so that people can easily get the maps passed.
Why is unauthorized construction such a big issue?
Devendra Yadav said that more than 70% of Delhi's population lives in villages, unauthorized colonies and rehabilitation colonies, where the maps of buildings are not passed. The surprising thing is that even in the colonies passed in 1977, the maps are not being passed till date. He He said, “Delhi's population is increasing every day. If building rules are not eased, then unauthorized construction is not going to stop. Officials demand huge bribes, due to which people build houses without maps. delhi is in seismic zone-4, where an earthquake of 7-8 magnitude can also occur. Yadav warned, “Delhi has become hollow due to unauthorized construction. If a big earthquake occurs, delhi will become a pile of rubble.
