NEW DELHI: The Delhi unit of BJP will be coming out with a separate manifesto for the Lok Sabha polls with special focus on local issues, Delhi BJP chief Manoj Tiwari said Monday.
However, the statehood issue will not be a part of the manifesto since Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal cannot be trusted to run the national capital in entirety, Tiwari said.
He said Kejriwal had sat on a dharna ahead of Republic Day celebrations in 2014.
The manifesto's content is yet to be worked upon but it will promise making Delhi pollution-free and cleaning Yamuna among others, he said.
Tiwari said they will also highlight how Kejriwal-led government has not been able to make Delhi pollution free, been instrumental in denying access to Ayushman Bharat health scheme to Delhiites and had "stopped funds" for several projects.
