Vardhan writes to Reddy to withdraw master plan

In a letter to Union Urban Development Minister S Jaipal Reddy, BJP Delhi Pradesh president Harshvardhan has demanded that the Master Plan for Delhi 2021 be withdrawn after declaring it cancelled.

In view of the actual needs of Delhi and the people of Delhi a new master plan should be framed and implemented with the consent of the Supreme Court so that Delhi and the people of Delhi get relief, he said.

In his letter, Vardhan said that the result of the MCD elections has totally dismissed the new master plan framed by the Central Government. By rejecting the vote plan and disaster plan the voters of Delhi have defeated the Congress and expressed their trust in the BJP.

He lashed out at the Congress and the Central Government saying they should not be rigid and should withdraw the misleading master plan so that the case going on in the Supreme Court may come to an end.

The BJP Pradesh president has said that in the new master plan, there should be strict provisions for the future. Besides, there should be a provision of amnesty so that no land mafia can grab public land in Delhi.

The people of Delhi should also respect the laws regarding land and buildings so that Delhi becomes a prosperous, pollution-free, encroachment-free and green city.

Vardhan also said that the BJP was totally against the sealing and demolition. It had fought the election on the issues of sealing, demolition, price spiral, lack of basic amenities, power, scarcity of water, inflated bills, corruption, bribery, anti people decisions and unreasonable taxes. The people have accepted the issues of the BJP. "This is the reason why 164 candidates of the BJP have been elected. The Congress had to face shameful defeat. The Congress had fought the MCD elections on the issues of the master plan and the so-called development by the Delhi Government," said the party president.
