"Congress and BJP are responsible for the hike in rates of water and electricity effect from today. When interim budget of Delhi was passed by Parliament, both parties could have made options for extending subsidies for electricity in interim budget, but it had not been done by them," AAP's national spokesperson Deepak Vajpayee said here.
Another AAP leader Dilip Pandey also claimed that Aam Aadmi Party would win all seven Lok Sabha seats in the national capital.
The party said that it was shocked and surprised that many news channels ran an unverified news about Somnath Bharti throughout the day yesterday and wrongly attributed it to the NHRC.
"Some news channel made no effort to cross-check the facts and merely relied on a falsehood spread by an individual known for his links with Congress party," he added.
