It has no plans to impose new taxes, but despite this, Aam Aadmi Party aims to improve the financial condition of the Municipal Corporation of Delhi simply by plugging leakages of funds and improving governance. In an interview to TOI, Durgesh Pathak, AAP functionary in charge of MCD, claimed corruption, lack of intent and poor governance had led to the current sorry state of the civic body. Sanitation, encroachments, parking and vendor management were key issues for the party, he added. Saying that Delhiites wanted change, he exuded confidence about AAP winning the coming polls.
