"We are grateful to the Central government for the Eastern and Western Peripheral Expressway. This measure has stopped 30 to 40 thousand trucks from entering Delhi," he said while discussing ideas on curbing pollution levels in Delhi earlier this month.
The national capital will be heading for Assembly elections next year. During the last Delhi Assembly polls in 2015, Kejriwal led his party (AAP) to a historic win by securing 67 seats in the 70-member Delhi Assembly.
