Title: Delhi Chief Minister Questions BJP over Name Change Controversy: “What Will You Do, BJP?”
Subtitle: Chief Minister Kejriwal Introduces 400 Electric Buses in Delhi, Plans to Operate 1900 by 2023
New Delhi – In a recent development, Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has raised a question regarding the proposed name change of the opposition’s “India” alliance to “Bharat.” Kejriwal directed his question towards the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), urging the party to clarify its stance on this matter.
Chief Minister Kejriwal made these remarks during the launch of 400 electric buses in New Delhi. The initiative marks a significant step towards reducing pollution and improving public transport infrastructure in the capital city. Kejriwal announced his vision to have a total of 1900 electric buses operational in Delhi by the end of 2023.
Underscoring the importance of inclusivity, the Chief Minister highlighted that the newly introduced electric buses are equipped with ramps for the disabled and three closed-circuit television (CCTV) cameras in each bus. These measures aim to provide a safer and more accessible public transport experience for all commuters.
Adding further to the ongoing discussions, Chief Minister Kejriwal emphasized the need for religious tolerance and respect. Addressing the BJP, he stated, “Our country has 1.4 billion people. If the ‘India’ coalition changes its name to ‘Bharat,’ what will you do, BJP? One should respect one’s religion. It is not right to speak ill of one’s religion.”
Chief Minister Kejriwal’s comments come amid rumors that a bill proposing the change of India’s name to ‘Bharat’ will be tabled. The name change controversy has sparked a nationwide debate, with supporters arguing it would promote a sense of belonging and cultural identity, while critics express concerns about erasing historical significance and the potential challenges of implementing such a change.
The nation waits to see how the BJP responds to Chief Minister Kejriwal’s question and whether they will provide further clarity on their stance regarding the proposed name change.
In the meantime, Delhi residents can look forward to a more sustainable and inclusive public transportation system with the addition of these electric buses. As the city progresses towards a greener future, Chief Minister Kejriwal’s commitment to improving the lives of citizens through innovative and environmentally-friendly initiatives remains at the forefront of Delhi’s agenda.
