New Delhi: AAP spokesman Saurabh Bharadwaj on Tuesday alleged that BJP destroyed a temple in Muslim areas only to polarize people before the city election.
BJP-Run East Delhi Municipal Corporation (EDMC) plans to build a building in a temple in Chauhan Bangad Ward, which he claims.
“Edmc has installed a board outside the place, which says ‘this plot map has been approved by EDMC’.
The BJP intention is to build a building there and then spread hatred on WhatsApp,” Bharadwaj said, added that BJP would like to make it a problem in the election, not Party work.
“When our board members expose this conspiracy, the two selected council members and nominations are suspended for 15 days.
This is the abuse of blatant power,” AAP functioner said.
He asked why BJP had not taken action on the temple problem.
Delhi BJP Spokesman Praveen Shankar Kapoor said AAP was cooking a story without being basic.
“The temple owner gets an approved online development plan and immediately after knowing knowledge about zon authorities, they are jammed and revoked,” Kapoor said.
“Civil bodies can act against illegitimate construction, but cannot stop every property owner from applying for a building plan,” he said.
