New Delhi, April 28
Arvind Kejriwal, leader of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), today handed over around 10.5 lakh letters to the Chief Minister at her residence, addressed to her by the residents of Delhi over the inflated water and power bills.

The party sent representatives to the Chief Minister's residence where the letters were received by the Additional Secretary.

During a protest rally at Jantar Mantar, Kejriwal vowed that the movement against the inflated bills would continue till the tariffs are brought down and alleged that both the Congress and the BJP have cartelized the water and electricity sector in the state.

"Sheila Dikshit was compelled to receive the protest letters because of the people's pressure. She had to bow to the will of the people," said Kejriwal while addressing a gathering at Jantar Mantar.

"This is people's victory. Our 12 associates handed over the protest letters to the Chief Minister," he said.

Kejriwal said the movement against the inflated water and electricity tariffs will continue till the prices are reduced.

"Our aim is not only to submit these letters but also seek action. Our protest is unlike that of the Bharatiya Janata Party leader Vijay Goel who simply acts for limelight. We have said we won't pay our bills and this movement will continue till the tariffs are reduced," he asserted.

The former Indian Revenue Service (IRS) officer said the Congress government, both at the centre and in the state had failed to address the issue of water crisis in the national Capital. "Every year, the Prime Minister says that they will provide water to every household in the country. They have not been able to provide water to Delhi in the past 65 years, how they will provide water to the entire country," he asked.

Most of the water tanker companies are owned by the leaders of these two parties. Besides, the government is hand in glove with the power discoms, he said. Kejriwal said that if the AAP comes to power in Delhi, its government would audit the sectors and ensure that the issues confronting the people are addressed.

Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit today refuted the charges levelled by Delhi BJP chief Vijay Goel who met President Pranab Mukherjee yesterday and demanded dismissal of the Delhi government on the grounds of deteriorating law and order situation in the city.

She said that he 'does not have a clue' about the administrative system as it is not her government but the Union Home Ministry which is responsible for the city police.

"What surprised me is the lack of knowledge about the governance system of Delhi in no lesser person than the Delhi BJP chief. Let him criticise me, but there must be some basis for criticism," she said.

"Goel was a member of Parliament. He was part of the Prime Minister's office during the NDA regime. He ought to know that the law and order does not come under the purview of Delhi government," she added

New Delhi, April 28
Delhi BJP today organized an Aakrosh Rally in association with various RWAs of North Delhi where the party chief Vijay Goel said that they would protest at Ramlila Maidan in case of further increase in power tariff.

Speaking at the rally organized jointly by the BJP and various RWAs of North Delhi, Goel announced that the party would hold a massive protest at Ramlila Maidan if the government makes any further increase in the already-high tariff in Delhi.

He demanded 30 per cent reduction in power tariff in Delhi by bringing in electricity connection portability where the consumer will have the option to choose from a group of vendors competing against one another.

Goel drew comparisons with the mobile phone market to underline the fact that mobile phone services which were most expensive earlier are now the cheapest in the world.

"The water crisis in Delhi is created by the mismanagement of the state government. Water can be made available to every household in Delhi by streamlining the distribution system," he said.

A 25-year-old married woman was found dead inside the Dwarka sector-12 Metro station in southwest Delhi on Saturday. The police suspect the deceased, Shilpi, committed suicide, as she may have consumed acid from a bottle that was found near her. Her postmortem report reveals that she consumed a poisonous substance. "There are no injury marks on her body," said a police officer.

Shilpi stayed with her husband, Deepak Sapra (28) in west Delhi's Vishnu Garden locality. Deepak is a teacher. He, his parents, Yogesh and Usha, have been arrested after Shilpi's brother levelled allegations that they were demanding dowry from the deceased. The accused were caught after several raids were carried out today.

"Deepak and his family were not satisfied with the dowry given to them. Soon after her marriage, they started harassing Shilpi," the officer said.

The police were informed about Shilpi, who was found in an unconscious condition at the station. She was taken to the Rao Tula Ram Memorial Hospital, where doctors declared her dead.

Shilpi had informed her family that she was going to meet a friend at Dwarka on Saturday. A case under sections 304-B (dowry death) and 498 A has been registered at the Rajouri Garden Metro police station.
