Aam Aadmi Party makes a commitment to the People of Delhi to serve and uphold, JUSTICE, LIBERTY, EQUALITY, FRATERNITY enshrined in the PREAMBLE to the Cons�tu�on of India as fundamental to our Governance model.

Aam Aadmi Party is perhaps the only poli�cal party in independent India that fulfilled a large majority of its elec�on promises made in the last Assembly elec�ons. Some of the prominent promises fulfilled were - world class educa�on system, mohalla clinics, providing free water and subsidised electricity, WiFi, CCTVs and marshalls for women safety in public buses.

Having built the founda�on, now is the �me to accelerate the pace of development of Delhi. Aam Aadmi Party will not only con�nue all its pro-people policies such as 200 units of free electricity, 20 kilolitres of free water every month, free bus ride for women, focus on educa�on and health but has also drawn a roadmap to make Delhi a truly world class city in the next 5 years.

The roadmap is divided in two parts: a list of 10 guarantees by Arvind Kejriwal to the people of Delhi, and an extended list of ini�a�ves that will complement the 10 guarantees in building a Delhi of our dreams.

1. DELHI JAN LOKPAL BILL: Aam Aadmi Party had passed the Delhi Jan Lokpal Bill 2015 in Delhi Assembly in December 2015 and it is pending with the Central government since last 4 years. AAP resolves to con�nue its struggle to get the Delhi Jan Lokpal Bill passed by the Central government.

2. DELHI SWARAJ BILL: Delhi Government had approved the forma�on of 2,972 Mohalla Sabhas in 70 Assembly cons�tuencies across the city in June 2016 as the first step in devolu�on of power to the people and making them direct par�cipants in solving day-to-day issues affec�ng their quality of life. We will pursue with the Centre to bring in a strong Delhi Swaraj Bill that will formalize the roles and responsibili�es of

Mohalla Sabhas and ensure adequate funds and func�ons in the hands of the community.

3. DOORSTEP DELIVERY OF RATION: We will introduce doorstep delivery of ra�on as a revolu�onary ini�a�ve to ensure dignity, transparency and accountability in supply of food ra�on and ensure food security for all.

4. TEERTH YATRA FOR 10 LAKH SENIOR CITIZENS: Our senior ci�zens have spent their en�re lives in the upbringing of their children. They are hardly able to fulfill their own wishes such as visit to a holy site of pilgrimage. AAP has taken upon itself to fulfil the wishes of senior ci�zens. We will take 10 lakh senior ci�zens in Delhi for Teerth Yatras over the next 5 years.

Apart from implemen�ng the 10 guarantees of Arvind Kejriwal, the Aam Aadmi Party promises the following landmark ini�a�ves in its Manifesto for 2020 Assembly Elec�ons:

7. WORLD'S LARGEST METRO NETWORK: We will extend Delhi's metro network to 500 km making it one of the world's largest metro networks and will connect several new areas such as Burari, Kirari, Bijwasan, Narela, Karawal Nagar, Mangolpuri and others.

10. APPOINTMENT OF NEW SAFAI KARMACHARIS: Making Delhi's streets clean isn't possible without adequate number of Safai Karmacharis. We will ensure new appointments of Safai Karmacharis as per the 2011 census of Delhi's popula�on and taking into account the rapid expansion of residen�al colonies in Delhi.

11. COMPENSATION OF RS 1 CRORE FOR DECEASED SAFAI KARMACHARIS: Safai Karmacharis play the most important role in keeping the city clean. We salute their contribu�on and shall award a compensa�on of Rs 1 Crore to families of all those Safai Karmacharis who die while performing duty.

5. DESHBHAKTI CURRICULUM: Building on the successes of Happiness Curriculum and Entrepreneurship Curriculum introduced in Delhi government schools, Deshbhak� Curriculum will be introduced.

12. NO RAID RAJ: We shall con�nue providing a free and fair business environment without raid raj to all businesses in Delhi like in the past five years. We will work closely with the trade and business community with a spirit of trust and collabora�on to strengthen Delhi's economy.9. WORLD CLASS ROADS: Well-designed,

beau�fully landscaped and safe roads that

cater to the needs of all its users are essen�al features of a world class city. Delhi's roads will be redesigned on these lines star�ng with a pilot of 40 km of roads within a year.

8. YAMUNA RIVERSIDE DEVELOPMENT: Along with reviving Yamuna river, we will work together with the Central government to develop a beau�ful riverside along the banks of Yamuna. This will play a big role in maintaining the Yamuna Eco-System and in crea�ng a new tourist des�na�on for Delhi.

6. SPOKEN ENGLISH FOR YOUTH: We will introduce spoken english, so� skills and personality development classes for students who have completed their schooling from any Delhi school, government or private, in the last 5 years, to raise their employment opportuni�es and income poten�al.

13. PROTECTION FROM SEALING: We will con�nue to take all legal and administra�ve measures to put pressure on the Central government, DDA and MCD to not allow sealing of industries/shops and ensure that the sealed shops are opened.

16. AMNESTY FOR OLD VAT CASES: We shall bring out an amnesty scheme to dispose off old VAT cases that have been pending since 2017 or earlier.

17. 24X7 MARKETS IN DELHI: We will establish 24x7 markets on a pilot basis in key commercial areas where shops, restaurants etc. can remain open round the clock. This will make Delhi a bustling, 24x7 hospitable city and also contribute to tourism and overall economy.

18. ENHANCE WOMEN PARTICIPATION IN ECONOMY: We will undertake ini�a�ves to connect housewives with job and business opportuni�es from or near their homes so that they can contribute to their household income as well as to Delhi's and na�on's economic development. Women shall be provided access to cheap capital and requisite skills.

19. OWNERSHIP RIGHTS FOR RESETTLEMENT COLONIES: We shall pursue the Central government to ensure full ownership rights with freehold status for residents of rese�lement colonies.

15. RATIONALISATION OF CIRCLE RATES: We will carry out a comprehensive review and ra�onaliza�on of circle rates across Delhi with actual market prices so that it protects the interests of the property owners.

14. UPGRADATION OF MARKETS AND INDUSTRIAL AREAS: We will allocate adequate funds for infrastructure development and upgrada�on of market and industrial areas.

23. JUSTICE FOR VICTIMS OF 1984 ANTI-SIKH GENOCIDE: We will ensure that the findings of the Supreme Court appointed SIT under Jus�ce SN Dhingra are acted upon promptly and the vic�ms of the 1984 An�-Sikh genocide get jus�ce.

28. FULL STATEHOOD FOR DELHI: AAP will con�nue to push for full statehood for Delhi within the Cons�tu�onal framework using its social, poli�cal and moral authority. Our proposal for full statehood is defined in the dra� State of Delhi Bill 2016 brought out by the current AAP government. The dra� bill proposes that the New Delhi area (under the jurisdic�on of New Delhi Municipal Council) which is of na�onal and interna�onal importance, and has only 3% of Delhi's popula�on, be kept under the ambit of Central government. The rest of the areas will transi�on to a full state. This will bring in overall efficiency and democra�c accountability in the administra�on of the na�onal capital. It will also prove to be a long-term solu�on for issues like MCD-led sealing, deteriora�ng law and order, non provision of land for building new schools, colleges, clinics, hospitals etc.

22. DUE RECOGNITION FOR BHOJPURI: We shall pursue with Central government for Bhojpuri language to be included in the Eighth Schedule to the Cons�tu�on of India.

21. SIMPLIFY CRITERIA FOR OBC CERTIFICATE: The current requirement of having an address proof of Delhi from or before 1993 for being eligible for an OBC cer�ficate is retrograde. We will pursue the Central government to replace this with the requirement of an address proof in Delhi for the past 5 years.

26. CONTINUED COMPENSATION TO FARMERS ON CROP LOSS: We will con�nue providing the highest compensa�on in the country of Rs 50,000 per hectare to farmers who suffer from crop loss.

20. REGULARIZATION AND REGISTRY OF UNAUTHORIZED COLONIES: The Central government has s�ll not regularized and changed the land-use of unauthorised colonies. AAP will con�nue to put pressure on Central government to ensure all of Delhi's unauthorised colonies get regularized and home owners get proper registries for their houses.

27. LEGAL PROTECTION FOR STREET VENDORS: Delhi will become the first state in India to give legal protec�on to street vendors and hawkers. We will issue the cer�ficate of vending within 6 months and set up interna�onal quality kiosks to prevent the harassment of street vendors at the hands of MCD and Delhi Police.
