The Aam Admi Party vociferous member of parliament Sanjay Singh visited the Madrasi Camp in Jangpura where on the orders of the court demolition took place a few days ago as the Jhuggies were allegedly constructed over the Barapulla drain said the chief minister Ms Rekha Gupta expressing her inability to defy the judiciary orders. The displaced persons are believed to be accommodated in Narela flats said sources but the Madrasi Camp JJ clusters inhabitants say that they are more than fifty kilometres away which will make them unemployed as majority of them are domestic servants in Jangpura localities where they have been residing since the last five decades.
The Aam Admi Party MP Sanjay Singh visited the demolished camp on Sunday and interacted with the affected displaced residents in this scorching heat assuring them to help them by deliberating with the authorities. He said that the BJP hates people from Purvanchal.
Before the elections, people from Purvanchal were called “Bangladeshis” and their votes were cut. Now, people from UP and Bihar are being displaced all over Delhi.
BJP is chasing away Bihar brothers from Delhi. Bihari brothers will chase away BJP from Bihar said Sanjay Singh on X. In another tweet he mentioned that “People go broke building a house.You don’t feel pity in destroying settlements” 50 years ago, these people came to Delhi, thousands of kilometres away from Tamil Nadu, and started their own small business. Some did hard labour, some ran a handcart and built their own small house by working hard all their life.BJP ruthlessly bulldozed their houses.
Modi ji had promised “where there is slum, there is house” Like every promise, this promise also turned out to be false. BJP has become a destroyer for the poor@AamAadmiParty
Will raise their voice from the streets to the Parliament said the Delhi AAP chief and former minister Saurabh Bharadwaj.
Sanjay Singh said that on 29 th June the AAP alongwith the people of entire Jhuggi Jhopri clusters will gather at Jantar Mantar and raise our voice against the demolition bof Jhuggies in Delhi by the Modi government and shall demand the insitu upgradation of the JJ clusters residents to give tham flats at their same places of clusters. He accused BJP saying further that
BJP’s bulldozer is running on the chests, houses and shops of Delhiites ‼️
Modi Ji had said that houses will be provided where there are slums, cards were distributed to them but today slums are being demolished all over Delhi.
The slum dwellers will have to mobilize against the BJP. Modi ji is going to hold an election rally in Bihar. We will also protest in Patna. We will chase away the BJP, which is chasing away people from Bihar and Uttar Pradesh in Delhi, from Bihar.
The former chief minister of Delhi Atishi Bhardwaj expressed her anger and concern over the demolition of Madrasi Camp in Jangpura saying that “Rekha ji, did the court also say that the BJP should not fulfil its promise of ‘Jahan Jhuggi, Wahi Makaan’? If the slums had to be demolished, then why weren’t people given houses in nearby areas? “Most people from the Madrasi Camp didn’t get any housing. Those who did were given dilapidated houses 40 km away in Narela with no jobs, roads, schools or hospitals.” said Atishi on X.
Meanwhile the Delhi chief minister Rekha Gupta on Delhi demolition especially the Madrasi Camp Jangpura said “Neither the government, nor the administration can do anything if the court has ordered something for the slums. The Madrasi Camp was set up on the banks of the Barapullah drain. The court had ordered the removal of this slum so that machines could be deployed to clean the drain… No one can defy court orders. Houses have been allotted to the residents of that camp.”
Addressing the people at the event to launch the construction of a Jan Sewa camp at a slum cluster in Haiderpur, Ms. Gupta told the residents not to worry as they are lifeline of the city and the Delhi government would not demolish their homes. “There were three recent demolitions. The first at Madrasi Camp was on the orders of the court. The second was at Wazirpur where a railway line was being encroached upon, and the third at Jailorwalabagh, where flats have been handed over to residentsnts.” she said. “If a railway line is being encroached, and there is an accident, then who will be responsible for it?” she asked. “In Jailorwalabagh, if slum dwellers are rehabilitated and new people come and settle in the slum demanding compensation, the government will have to act.”
