Maken said the CAG was provided information from MCD that 60 deaths due to dengue took place in the year 2015 whereas the CAG mentioned that the hospitals in Delhi had reported 409 deaths due to dengue.
"A total of 83.63 lakh houses were treated with six different types of insecticides applying three different techniques," he said.

Maken claimed that the expenditure incurred on such treatment was Rs 2.55 crore. There was also no assessment as to the effectiveness of the methods adopted in vector control.
