Kejriwal and Saxena together inaugurated the city's third waste-to-art theme park on Bahadur Shah Zafar Marg on Tuesday- the former as the special guest and the latter as chief guest.
The two unveiled a plaque at the Shaheedi Park, as the park is known, and took a 30-minute-long tour of the 4.5-acre facility together, as officials briefed them about the sculptures installed at the park.
The atmosphere at Shaheedi Park was in stark contrast to the acrimonious events of June 10 when the two appeared to jostle for credit over the inauguration of a university campus in east Delhi.
During an address, Saxena thanked the Centre for providing grants of ₹15 crore to develop the facility and highlighted several major infrastructure projects being carried out by the central government in the city.
The chief minister, in his five-minute speech, underlined his party's attempts to rid the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) which built the park - of graft and to help clean the city up.
Also known as "Azadi ka Amrit Mahotsav Park", the facility was conceptualised last year to mark 75 years of Independence. It was funded by the central government and built by MCD's horticulture wing. MCD claims it is India's first "outdoor museum park".
