AAP Protests Outside Delhi LG's Residence For Not Approving 'Red Light On, Gaadi Off' Campaign

AAP members were protesting outside Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena's residence for not approving the party's 'Red Light On, Gaadi Off' campaign.

The 'Red Light On, Gaadi Off' campaign in the national capital was set to be launched on Friday.

New Delhi: Several leaders of the Aam Aadmi Party on Saturday staged a protest outside the residence of Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena for not approving the file to proceed with the 'Red Light On, Gaadi Off' campaign.

The protesters gathered at Raj Niwas Marg with placards and raised slogans against Saxena.

Security presence outside Saxena's residence has been beefed up. Police have been deployed and water canons kept on standby.

The 'Red Light On, Gaadi Off' campaign in the national capital was set to be launched on Friday.

Delhi Environment Minister Gopal Rai said earlier that the government was postponing the campaign as it was yet to receive approval from the Lieutenant Governor.

"The 'Red Light On, Gaadi Off' campaign has been successful in previous years. The month-long campaign was set to be launched tomorrow for this year but no approval has been received so far. The file was sent to the LG on October 21," Rai said.
