Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia on Thursday said that the media should focus on the work done by the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Government instead of talking about other things.
"Instead of focusing on our work, media is talking about other things. I request media to also look at the work that we are doing. The advertisements are to highlight our work with the people," said Sisodia.
The Aam Aadmi Party has reportedly set aside Rs 520 crore to fund its radio advertisements over the current financial year, in which Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal will address the people of Delhi and share his government's work.
The ads, which will run with the tagline 'Jo Kaha, So Kiya', will refer to his party's pre-poll promises and the steps taken by the government to implement them.
Earlier this year, the Supreme Court had ruled that only photographs of the President, the Prime Minister and the Chief Justice can be used for government advertisements which are being paid for by public funds.
