AAP leader Saurabh Bhardwaj attacked BJP over the death of 4 people due to building collapse in Rohini. Accusing the government of ‘zero accountability’, he said that safety audit has become just a means of bribery and a show off.
New Delhi [भारत]July 9 (ANI): Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Delhi President Saurabh Bhardwaj on Thursday targeted the BJP over the Rohini building collapse incident. Four people lost their lives in this accident. Alleging “zero accountability” in dealing with such cases, Bhardwaj accused the government of turning the security audit into a sham and shielding those responsible.
In a post on Twitter, Bhardwaj said, “Zero accountability. So far 4 people have been found dead, 3 injured under the debris of the building collapse in Rohini. What has the 4-engine BJP government learned from the building collapse in Saket (Saidulajab)?”
AAP’s allegation – Safety audit is just a show
He alleged that the BJP government had claimed to conduct safety audit of buildings across Delhi but failed to prevent such tragedies. Bhardwaj alleged, “The BJP government claimed that they had conducted a safety audit of all buildings in Delhi and identified dangerous buildings. It seems that the government and the MCD used this opportunity to put pressure on city businesses and extort huge bribes in the name of safety audit. This entire exercise was just a sham.”
‘Action is taken only on small fish’
The AAP leader further claimed that lower level officials are regularly suspended after such incidents, while senior officials escape accountability. He said, “Whenever such an incident happens, innocent people lose their lives, the BJP government will suspend a JE/AE. In a few weeks they resume their job and everything becomes normal. Be it Ram temple, Rs 650 crore health scam, building collapse or fire incidents, only small fish are prosecuted. Crocodiles get protection from the government.”

4 storey building collapses in Rohini, 4 dead
His comments came after a four-storey under-construction building collapsed in Rohini on Thursday afternoon. According to officials, four people died in the incident, while one person was injured.
The deceased have been identified as Noorul Huda (20), Ram Dua (51) and Ram (42), while another victim also succumbed to his injuries. Injured Saddam (34) is admitted in the hospital.
Police said that an FIR has been registered under relevant sections and investigation is underway.
The accident occurred amid heavy rains that have been lashing Delhi-NCR since Wednesday night, causing severe waterlogging and traffic disruption in several parts of the national capital, including Mehrauli-Badarpur Road, Burari and NH-24 near Akshardham. Similar waterlogging was also reported from Noida and Ghaziabad, while several tree falling incidents in South Delhi disrupted traffic. (ANI)
