Addressing Tenant Concerns
During a press conference, Kejriwal highlighted concerns raised by tenants in Delhi who are currently excluded from the free utility’s schemes. “Wherever I go, I meet people living on rent who say they benefit from good schools and hospitals but are deprived of free electricity and water schemes,” he said, emphasizing the need for a solution to this issue.
Assuring Benefits for Tenants
Kejriwal assured that, if elected, tenants, particularly those from the Purvanchal region, would also enjoy the same benefits of free electricity and water. “We will ensure that after the elections, tenants will also be entitled to these services,” he added.
