The Opposition BJP on Friday staged a protest near Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s residence here demanding compensation for kin of two sanitation workers’, who had died, and another severely injured while cleaning a septic tank in south Delhi.
Party workers led by Leader of Opposition in the Delhi Assembly, Ramvir Singh Bidhuri, and State vice-president Ashok Goel protested at the Chandgiram Akhara in Civil Lines.
“The Kejriwal government should implement the Mukhyamantri Septic Tank Safai Yojana with immediate effect and give compensation of ₹1 crore each to the families of the deceased safai karamcharis and ₹50 lakh to the injured scavenger,” Mr. Bidhuri said.
“There is a difference between CM Kejriwal’s words and works,” Mr. Goel said.
