Take a drive across the city and you would find huge hoardings with chief minister Arvind Kejriwal hawking some inane scheme or other. One such hoarding displayed these days says that even children from middle class poor families can now speak English, courtesy some Delhi government scheme.
Now one wonders what makes Delhi government categorize middle class families as poor. Secondly and more importantly, what makes him believe that the children from these families were waiting all the while for Kejriwal to launch a scheme to start learning English language? These hoardings are nothing more than an attempt by Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leadership to paper over the cracks which has come to manifest the functioning of the Delhi government.
This newspaper last Friday broke the news of the Delhi government deciding on the reversal of the new excise policy. This move has come in the face of the charges of huge corruption against the deputy chief minister Manish Sisodia in the allotment of the liquor vends and the probe being carried out by the various agencies.
