Governance paralysis in Delhi under AAP rule: Ajay Maken

Congress leader Ajay Maken today tried to pick holes in Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's claims about development in the national capital, alleging there was not one department which was not suffering from "governance paralysis" under the AAP rule.

The Delhi Congress chief took a dig at Kejriwal for the resignation of Ashutosh and Ashish Khetan from AAP, saying "more people now want to leave AAP".

Maken also attacked the BJP government at the Centre over the Rafale military aircraft deal with France, saying it was a "scam" of unprecedented magnitude.

"The Rafale deal is not only an issue of corruption and scam but also of national security," he told reporters here.

About Kejriwal's remarks on his development model in health and education during his recent visit to Punjab, Maken said, "If they have been working efficiently in Delhi, then why did their vote percentage in corporation elections fell to 25 per cent from 56 per cent. In Rajouri Garden bypoll, the AAP got just 11 per cent votes while Congress bagged 33 per cent votes."
