After missing many deadlines, the iconic and much-awaited Signature Bridge over the Yamuna was inaugurated on Sunday by Delhi Cheif Minister Arvind Kejriwal amid a face-off between Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) workers at the event. High drama prevailed before the inauguration with Delhi BJP president Manoj Tiwari and scores of supporters staging a protest for allegedly not being invited to the inaugural event of the newly-built city landmark. BJP, however, said that AAP leader Amantullah Khan used abusive language and pushed Tiwari. The opening came after a clash between AAP and BJP workers at the site when Tiwari allegedly punched a policeman during the fracas before order was restored. During his speech, Kejriwal attacked BJP and Prime Minister Narendra Modi and questioned if the country needed bridges, schools and hospitals or temples and statues for progress. from IndiaTV: Google News Feed https://ift.tt/2zqp6Qu
