New Delhi, June 11 -- Delhi Minister Manjinder Singh Sirsa, on Wednesday, defended the Delhi Development Authority's (DDA) action against illegal encroachment and said that those whose slums have been removed have been given separate houses.

Speaking to the media, Sirsa slammed the Aam Aadmi Party for spreading lies and misleading the people.

"No slum will be demolished. No person will be removed from the slum...Those whose slums have been removed have been given separate houses...They (AAP) are telling lies only to mislead the people of Delhi. Now they (AAP) are out of power. I want to ask them whether they have given a house to even a single slum dweller?... Prime Minister Modi has said 'Jahan jhuggi wahi makaan," Manjinder Sirsa said...
