From Pollution to infra, task cut out for new Delhi govt
New Indian ExpressNEW DELHI: After a 27-year hiatus, the BJP has regained power in the capital, but its real challenge begins now. With Rekha Gupta sworn in as chief minister on Thursday, the BJP faces an uphill battle in its first year, grappling with pollution, infrastructure issues and maintaining welfare schemes promised by the outgoing AAP government. However, the new government must quickly fulfill campaign promises, such as a monthly `2,500 honorarium for women, surpassing AAP’s `2,100 scheme. The BJP is also introducing the Ayushman Bharat health insurance scheme, offering up to `5 lakh in medical coverage per beneficiary, and plans to revamp AAP’s mohalla clinics, potentially sparking political tensions. Additionally, the BJP plans to address financial mismanagement allegations against AAP and revisit scandals like the liquor policy and ‘sheesh mahal’ controversy.
