AAP councillor Ravinder Solanki slams Kejriwal for announcing new scheme while not fulfilling promise of ₹1,000 allowance, says people no longer trusts the party

Ravinder Solanki said that the party should have first fulfilled the promise of the ₹1,000 allowance before announcing the new scheme of ₹2100 allowance

The ‘Mukhya Mantri Mahila Samman Yojana’  promising ₹2100 per month to the women of Delhi announced by Aam Aadmi Party chief Arvind Kejriwal has become a major source of controversy. After the Health and Family Welfare Department of the Government of the National Capital Territory of Delhi warned the citizens that no such scheme is in existence at present, AAP councillor Ravinder Solanki slammed the party for announcing new scheme while not fulfilling earlier promises of similar schemes.

Ravinder Solanki raised eyebrows by publicly criticizing his own party for announcing new scheme while failing to deliver on the ₹1,000 monthly allowance for women promised during elections. He said that public no longer trusts the party for unfulfilled promises. He said that the party should have first fulfilled the promise of the ₹1,000 allowance before announcing the new scheme of ₹2,100 allowance.

Speaking to the media, Solanki said, “a lot of women come to the office and ask about ₹1000 allowance. Till now, ₹1000 allowance has not been given and you have made the women queue up for ₹2100. We want to tell Kejriwal ji that they should have first fulfilled the promise of ₹1000 allowance and then announced another scheme. The public is not trusting anymore. We have no answers to give the public.”

AAP councillor Ravinder Solanki’s open criticism of his own party comes after the Delhi Women and Child Development Department clarified that there is no such scheme as the ‘Mukhya Mantri Mahila Samman Yojana,’ along with another promised scheme named ‘Sanjeevani Scheme’.

The department issued a public notice today saying that no scheme called ‘Mukhya Mantri Mahila Samman Yojana’ exists, and therefore the question of physical forms / applications for the registration under this non-existent scheme does not arise. The department warned that “Any private individual/ political party collecting such physical forms / applications or collecting information from applicants under the name of the Mukhyamantri Mahila Samman Yojana is fraudulent and without any authority.”

The dept also cautioned citizens against sharing personal details like as bank account information, voter ID card, phone numbers, residential address, or any other sensitive information in the name of this scheme.

Similarly, the Health and Family Welfare Department issued another public notice saying that there is no scheme called ‘Sanjeevani Scheme’ that promises free treatment for all citizens above the age of 60 years. It asked people to not believe in free treatment under this non-existent scheme, and issued similar warning against giving out personal information.

Common sense dictates that a sophisticated energy plant that supplies power to millions of households and companies like Google will be protected from external threats and security challenges by a state-of-the-art security system, surveillance tech and personnel. For The Guardian and Congress to try and claim that the world's largest green energy project will be a 'security risk' is not juvenile, it is misleading and clearly intended to spread fear among the masses.
