Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal Thursday claimed Delhiites were "very disappointed" with the Centre's decision to approve only three of the proposed six corridors under the Metro Phase-IV project, wondering why the Modi government was "so much against the people of Delhi".

Kejriwal said there should be no politics over Delhi's development.

Earlier in the day, the Union Cabinet approved three -- Mukundpur-Maujpur, R K Ashram-Janakpuri West and Aero City-Tughlakabad -- of the six corridors proposed under Metro Phase-IV.

The other three proposed corridors not yet approved by the Union Cabinet are: Rithala-Bawana-Narela, Inderlok-Indraprastha and Lajpat Nagar-Saket G Block.
