AAP alleges MCD's incompetence as a massive fire broke out at Bhalswa Landfill

AAP Senior Leader and MCD in-charge Durgesh Pathak has alleged that a massive fire broke out at its Bhalswa Landfill on December 12 and this is a testament to BJP-ruled MCD's incompetence.

Pathak has further claimed that piles of trash fell down endangering passersby. Launching a scathing attack on BJP, he alleged that the only thing BJP has delivered in its 15 year-long rule of the MCD is the gift of three life-threatening mountains of garbage.

He also stressed the plight of those living around the garbage mountains being abysmal and said that the BJP is carelessly playing with their lives. He reiterated that Delhiites will avenge BJP's corruption, loot, shamelessness and tyranny by throwing them out of the MCD in the next elections.

"In the last fifteen years, the BJP has given three humongous gifts to the people of Delhi in form of the three infamous garbage mountains. These mountains look so hideous that it brings shame and disrespect to the people of the state. While acknowledging this, we must not forget the plight of those living in a 5km radius around these trash mountains," Pathak alleged.

He added, "Every now and then we get to hear how fires break out in these landfills. Yesterday, a massive fire engulfed a significant portion of the Bhalswa landfill. Because of this unfortunate event piles of garbage fell down around the landfill causing great agony to the residents. Such fires intensely pollute the environment and turn fatal for those living near the region."
