‘Ready to help state govts to improve their infrastructure’

New Delhi: Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Saturday said his dispensation was ready to help state governments in improving their education and health infrastructure without the consideration of political ideologies for the welfare of the country.

He was speaking at the launch of 12,430 classrooms in Delhi government schools. “I am making an offer today. If any state government, irrespective whether it is led by BJP or Congress, wants to improve its education infrastructure, we are ready to loan Education Minister Manish Sisodia to it,” Kejriwal said.

“Similarly, if any state gover nment wants to build mohalla clinics, wellequipped government hospitals, we are ready to loan Health Minister Satyendar Jain to it,” he added. Kejriwal’s comments came at a time when his Aam Aadmi Party is in the poll fray in states like Punjab.

“We do not fight the elections in every state. We want the country to progress and we are ready to help the state governments. We want corruption to end,” he said.

Kejriwal has come under attack from the BJP and the Congress after former Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Kumar Vishwas accused him of supporting separatists in poll-bound Punjab. Kejriwal has dubbed Vishwas’s allegations as “laughable”.
