Stepping up offensive against the AAP dispensation in Delhi, Congress, which supports from outside, today termed it as a government of "call centre and helpline" and accused Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal of doing nothing to help the common man.
Senior Delhi Congress leader Mukesh Sharma also attacked Kejriwal for holding "Janta Durbar" on Saturday which had to be called off following chaos.
Referring to launch of separate helplines for registering complaints relating to power cuts, corruption and nursery admilssion, he said "it has become a government of call centre and helpline".
"This government came to power in the name of serving the people and has now deviated from its professed objective. The Janta Durbar drama was enacted to get publicity. Those people who expected Khejriwal to honour his promise of addressing their grivances had come to the meet. But they returned dejected," said Sharma.
