On Friday 30April, Aam Aadmi Party MLA Shoaib Iqbal sought imposition of President’s rule in Delhi in view of the massive rise in COVID-19 cases.
The Matia Mahal MLA said neither he nor the government is able to offer any help to the people getting infected during the second wave of COVID-19.
Iqbal had left the Congress and contested the 2020 Delhi Assembly Elections on an AAP ticket,
“I feel embarrassed being an MLA since I cannot be of use to anyone, our government is unable to stand with people. Despite being a six-time MLA, there is no one to listen to (me) and I cannot contact anyone,” Iqbal said in a video message.
He further appealed to the Delhi High Court to impose the President’s rule in the national capital with immediate effect, else “there will be bodies on the road”.
