Lashing out at the BJP’s ally, the Shiv Sena, for its “malicious campaign” against the installation of LED lights in Mumbai, Union Power Minister Piyush Goyal on Tuesday said there were attempts to create misconceptions about the project.
Without taking names, Mr. Goyal lambasted the Shiv Sena’s mouthpiece, the Saamna , which has been regularly criticising the BJP’s project of installing LED lights on Marine Drive.
Mr. Goyal released a feedback survey by auditing giant PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) on the use of LED lights along the Marine Drive. The survey comprised 2,000 randomly selected respondents — joggers, residents, shopkeepers, hawkers, students, security personnel, motorists.
Seventy-nine percent respondents were satisfied with the LED lights.
