AAP will solve Delhi\'s garbage problem in 5 years if voted to MCD: Gopal Rai

Deccan Chronicle  

NEW DELHI: AAP Delhi convener and minister Gopal Rai Friday asserted his party will solve the city's garbage management problem within five years, if voted to power in the MCD, saying the BJP failed in its 15-year-tenure in the civic body. The party released 'Kejriwal's 10 guarantees' for the December 4 MCD polls earlier this month with the promise to clear the three landfill sites and address the problem of garbage mismanagement in the capital. AAP's senior leader Atishi had earlier told PTI that the party will rope in international experts to find solutions to reducing the size of the three landfill sites. Elaborating on the party' plans, Rai said that they will install such treatment plants in Delhi, where the garbage collected from households will directly be dumped there and energy will be generated.
