Both the AAP and the BJP Thursday sought to bag credits for expediting the work on regularisation of unauthorised colonies in Delhi, with Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal saying the Purvanchali people will be the biggest beneficiaries of the move.
Delhi BJP president Manoj Tiwari, however, credited Union Housing and Urban Affairs Minister Hardeep Puri for his efforts to provide ownership rights to the residents of unauthorised colonies in Delhi.
Tiwari said the BJP's Delhi unit with the help of the central government will give a gift to the residents of unauthorised colonies before the Assembly election early next year.
Chief Minister Kejriwal, addressing a gathering of Maithili Purvanchali people, said "Purvanchalis will be the biggest beneficiaries of regularisation of unauthorised colonies in Delhi. Around 10 million people will be given ownership rights of their houses."
