It also claimed that the boy slipped into the drain while defecating in the open as the toilets built in the area were “dismantled on the orders” of Lieutenant-Governor V.K. Dirty politics: Raj Niwas Officials at the L-G office accused AAP of “playing dirty politics instead of owning up to their faults”.
