New Delhi: Aam Aadmi Party's (AAP) Arvind Kejriwal seeks a trust vote in Delhi Assembly today. BJP has refused to support the government. Congress leader Arvinder Singh Lovely spoke about lending support. Here are the highlights:
- We are paying for our mistakes. But consider for a moment. Even after this so called wave, you are still on that side of the house.
- Over confidence is not good - you will remain chief ministers in-waiting.
- We are ready for action against corruption- and we have considered all aspects before extending support.
- If there has been corruption anywhere, whether in the MCD or Delhi government - there should be action taken against it. I state this on record on behalf of the my party.
- We have supported them because we did not want re-elections in Delhi.
- We had the least to lose if there were re-polls; we acted as a responsible political party.
- All political parties are in politics because they want to be in power. But that alone is not the driving force - we have to respect the wishes of the people
- I urge you not to act in haste. Water has become more expensive for most people - your scheme will benefit about 5 lakh people- most of whom live in areas like GK, Defence Colony & Vasant Kunj.
- As long as you make decision for the good of the people in Delhi, you do not need to fear any government.
- How can you announce subsidy? This assembly has that power. This assembly hasn't even cleared power subsidy yet. We have on record that the power department has no money for subsidy. The House is yet to pass the budget.
- Your officers are misguiding you, the subsidy on power will cost 315 crores and not 200 crores as you have said. If you continue this after March, it will cost more than 1350 crores.
