“Congress was in power for 15 years. The AAP was in power for 49 days. They are to be blamed for the situation not the BJP as our party has not come to power in Delhi yet,” Vardhan said.

The power situation had further deteriorated yesterday as a number of power transmission lines maintained by Delhi Transco Ltd (DTL), a Delhi government utility, had tripped.  The DTL is yet to repair all the transmission lines damaged by the devastating storm on May 30.

Congress MLAs and ex-MLAs had held a protest yesterday at Delhi Secretariat by locking the Chief Secretary in his room for over one-and-a-half hours demanding improvement in the power situation.
