Delhi's Hardayal Library Staff Receive Pending Salaries from 2021; Kejriwal Highlights AAP's Commitment to Public Welfare

The Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) has taken a significant step towards resolving the long-standing salary dispute of 96 employees at the Hardayal Municipal Public Library. After enduring a wait of five months without pay since 2021, the employees finally received their overdue salaries following directives from Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal.

The library staff had been staging a dharna for the past 35 months, grappling with financial instability exacerbated by the lack of salary payments. The situation had reached a critical point, with the library facing a severe shortage of funds resulting in a four-month-long period without electricity, adversely affecting students’ ability to study.

In a statement to the press, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) acknowledged the release of salaries for the five-month period in 2021 as a significant development in addressing the employees’ grievances.

The root cause of the issue stemmed from a longstanding dispute between the AAP and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) concerning the elections to the library’s managing body. Despite commitments made by MCD Mayor Shelly Oberoi in April, progress in resolving the salary crisis had been slow. However, recent developments, including the formation of a verification committee for salary distribution, signaled a positive shift towards resolution.

During his interaction with the Hardayal Library staff, Kejriwal expressed satisfaction at the salary disbursement while reaffirming the AAP’s commitment to addressing the challenges faced by the common people. He emphasized the government’s responsibility to cater to the basic needs of citizens, including access to electricity, water, education, and healthcare.

Kejriwal also criticized the BJP’s governance, alleging corruption and mismanagement during their 15-year tenure at the MCD. Despite facing obstacles imposed by the opposition, he highlighted the AAP’s efforts in improving civic services and ensuring transparency in governance.

Responding to the developments, Delhi BJP spokesperson Praveen Shankar Kapoor emphasized the need for government-level intervention to alleviate the financial crisis facing the Hardayal Library. Kapoor called for comprehensive support from the Delhi Government to address the library’s debts and facilitate its maintenance and expansion.

As the situation unfolds, the release of pending salaries marks a significant milestone in addressing the plight of Hardayal Library staff. However, sustained efforts and collaborative initiatives will be essential to ensure the long-term stability and prosperity of this iconic institution.
