User Charge Latest News: There is news of great relief for Delhiites today. Users surcharge for disposal of garbage has been stopped with immediate effect. Along with this, a new settlement plan has also been announced for payment of property tax. This decision was taken by Delhi Mayor Sardar Raja Iqbal Singh in the presence of Delhi BJP President Virendra Sachdeva.

Why did the surcharge oppose?

Delhi BJP President Virendra Sachdeva said that the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) had implemented this surcharge in the budget of 2025-26 without any discussion or advice. This became the biggest reason for its opposition. Several Resident Welfare Association (RWA), traders and industry organizations of Delhi justified this surcharge. He said that neither its amount was appropriate nor the process of implementing it was correct. Sachdeva said that the system of garbage management in some colonies is not good, yet surcharge was imposed. Not only this, it was also implemented on those who claim zero waste.

Legal flaws also exposed

Sachdeva said that the AAP in a hurry implemented this surcharge under the Solid Waste Management Rules 2016, but the necessary procedure was not followed. Neither cleanliness committees were formed, nor is there any provision of this surcharge in the Municipal Corporation of Delhi Act 1957. In such a situation, it was necessary to complete the legal process before implementing it.

The mayor listened to the public present in the meeting
Mayor Raja Iqbal Singh announced to stop recovering surcharge on the suggestions and advice of Sachdeva at the RWA meeting. He said, “The AAP had imposed this charge without thinking. Now it is being stopped. Tomorrow a proposal will be brought in the meeting of the Municipal Corporation so that such a charge will not be taken in future. The mayor also promised that soon the people will be taken opinion by calling meetings at the regional level.

Relief in property tax to the people of Delhi

Sachdeva had demanded exemption from the mayor for payment of property tax, which was accepted by the mayor. Now a new house tax amnesty scheme will come, in which no interest or penalty will have to be paid for depositing the last 5 years tax. After depositing the tax, taxpayers will also get a no objection certificate (NOC). Sachdeva said that especially people of lower income groups were upset due to outstanding tax and fine. This scheme will bring great relief for them.

RWA representatives made many suggestions

In the meeting, RWA representatives like Suresh Bindal, Atul Goyal, Saurabh Gandhi and others gave their suggestions. These suggestions have been noted. The mayor said that after considering these, steps will be taken soon.

This decision has brought a sigh of relief for the people of Delhi. Now everyone’s eyes are on what steps the Municipal Corporation takes further on this issue and how the complaints of the people are resolved.

Virendra Sachdeva News: Politics has been hot over 400 buses in Delhi. Delhi BJP President Virendra Sachdeva has launched a scathing attack on Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Saurabh Bhardwaj. Sachdeva says that Saurabh has been shocked by his and party defeat in the assembly elections and now losing his mental balance.

Virendra Sachdeva said that yesterday Saurabh Bhardwaj was claiming that 400 buses of Devi Yojana were bought by his government and his inauguration was already inaugurated. At the same time, he accused the BJP of stealing its credit. But today the same Saurabh is accusing the BJP government of scam on the same 400 buses. Sachdeva taunted and said, “Saurabh ji, the public does not understand whether to believe your claim or today’s allegations.”

‘No scam in purchase of 400 buses’

The BJP president made it clear that there was no scam in the purchase of 400 buses. This was only a case of technical problems, which was ignored by the Kejriwal government. But Rekha Gupta’s government found a way to run these buses in the public interest. Sachdeva said, “Saurabh Bhardwaj is upset with this and is making baseless accusations”. He asked Saurabh that what is the truth to the public- your claim or today’s charge? Sachdeva’s statement has created a stir in the politics of Delhi.

Virendra Sachdeva on Arvind Kejriwal: Delhi BJP President Virendra Sachdeva has attacked the Arvind Kejriwal government fiercely on the occasion of the birth anniversary of Babasaheb Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar. He said that in the last 78 years, if a government has hurt Baba Saheb’s dreams the most, then it is Kejriwal’s government. Sachdeva alleged that Kejriwal only talked about the Dalits and the exploited classes, but did not do anything for them.

“Photos put up, not worked”

Sachdeva taunted that Kejriwal hung pictures of Babasaheb in the secretariat, but did not show any interest in implementing the schemes made for Dalits and the poor. He said that the Kejriwal government did not take any concrete steps to improve the Dalit settlements or the education of their children.

‘Money was allocated, but no expenditure’

Presenting some figures, the BJP president said that between 2020 and 2024, the Kejriwal government kept a budget of Rs 260 crore for Dalit settlements, but spent only 121 crores. Where did the rest of the money go? Sachdeva says that Kejriwal blew up his “Sheeshamahal” and ministers’ offices.

‘Plans were made, but only on paper’

Sachdeva mentioned three schemes, which the Kejriwal government started in the name of Babasaheb:

1. Jai Bhima Chief Minister Pratibha Vikas Yojana (for Scheduled Caste students): Rs 180 crore was kept for this, but only 4.4 crores spent

2. Jai Bhim Yojana (for minority, backward and poor students): 250 crores budget, but spent only 4.2 crores.

3. Chief Minister Vidyarthi Pratibha Yojana: Budget of 461 crores, but only 32.2 crores spent.

Sachdeva questioned why only 40.80 crores out of a total of Rs 891 crore were spent? Where did the rest of the money go?

Kejriwal replies- Sachdeva

Sachdeva directly questioned Kejriwal that he should come forward and tell the Dalit, minority and poor sections of Delhi that the money that was kept for the education and better life of his children, where did he go? He said that Babasaheb had dreamed of education and equality, but Kejriwal used his name only to take votes.

What is the whole matter?

Sachdeva says that the Kejriwal government only pretended for Dalits and exploited classes in 10 years. Hiding behind hoardings and photographs, he neither improved Dalit settlements, nor did anything to give good education to their children. The BJP president called it “deception” with Baba Saheb’s dreams.

Question on Baba Saheb’s birth anniversary

Today, when the whole country is celebrating Baba Saheb’s birth anniversary, Sachdeva said that this is the time to answer Kejriwal. The people of Delhi want to know why the schemes that were made for the future of their children were reduced to papers?

He said that Babasaheb had a dream that every class should get equal, education. Can the people of Delhi not ask for the rights that the schemes made for them take to the ground?
