Dry Dwarka asks parties for clear planÂ

NEW DELHI: Dwarka residents, who had refused to vote in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections, have decided to give one last chance to political parties. They have invited the LS candidates from the three major parties for an open discussion on Sunday, where each of them is expected to spell out their respective model of development for Dwarka.

"We have invited Jarnail Singh of the Aam Aadmi Party, Parvesh Verma of the BJP, and Mahabal Mishra of the Congress. All three have agreed and we hope to have a good discussion. An invitation is also being sent to all the area residents. We will see if any of them is able to impress us suitably. And if not, we may still not vote," said Sudha Sinha, general secretary of the Dwarka group housing federation.

Mishra, who is the sitting MP from the area, is likely to face some grueling questions. The AAP candidate may also have to face the music after the party's policy on private tankers left the area high and dry.

The sub-city constructed by Delhi Development Authority has been facing several issues, the most critical of which is the availability of water. In the past month or so, the water supply to the area has reduced further after the police started cracking down on private tankers which till then met over half the demand.

It was decided last week, at a protest organized by the federation, to not cast votes in the LS elections and to not pay property taxes till the water problem was solved. Though the police had initially denied permission to the group for the protest citing security concerns due to the elections, they later permitted the group to protest for half-an-hour on a slip road. On Thursday, the police filed an FIR against some residents under Section 188.

Residents are also embroiled in a court case after they self-allocated flats in some societies. "The allocation had not been done for five years. Fed up with the state of affairs, we carried out self allocation and now the case is in court," said a resident.

The residents, Sinha said, are completely frustrated and will to go through anything. "Residents are in a desperate situation and societies are not getting a drop of water for three to four days. Surprisingly, after our protest, the supply to some societies was increased. Initially we had said that we will not vote but we would like to hear from our candidates," she said.
