When Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal arrived in Uttam Nagar on Sunday afternoon to inaugurate a sewer pipeline, he was in for a rude shock. Raising anti-Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) slogans, irked residents of the locality burned the CM's effigy.

The locals said the party did not deliver on any of the pre-poll promises and now that the municipal corporation elections were round the corner, the CM has once again started wooing the public with his false promises.

The protest was led by former Congress leaders from the area. Adequate police force had to be deployed to control the agitated mob to prevent any untoward incident.

The CM arrived in the Mohan Garden area of the locality around 3pm. Hundreds of local people then took to the streets and started raising anti-AAP slogans. They also waived black flags in front of the CM's convoy, asking him to "go back".

Protesters said the sewer line that Kejriwal had come to inaugurate was built by the leaders of the last reigning political party. They also said the construction work of the sewer was to be completed in a year, but even after four years, it was nowhere near completion.

They also alleged that AAP has been working only on paper and has done no ground work for the betterment of citizens, as was promised at the time of elections two years ago.

Protesters further said the plan to construct hospital in Bindapur had been stalled. A health centre and a bus terminal have been built there but both are not operational as of now, they said.
