New Delhi [India], March 13 (ANI): BJP MP Bansuri Swaraj on Thursday extended her greetings to the people on the occasion of Holi. She said this year's Holi is special as the BJP came to power in Delhi after 27 years.

Extending her greetings to the people of Delhi on the occasion of Holi, CM Gupta emphasized the importance of safety and water conservation during the festival.

BJP MP Manoj Tiwari celebrated Holi with party workers in Delhi and extended greetings.

Speaking to ANI, Manoj Tiwari said, 'We are celebrating Holi with all our party workers of Delhi. I congratulate everyone on this joyous occasion. Holi comes once a year, and those trying to create any kind of issue are not doing good. 'Holi waale Holi manaayein, Jumma waale Jumma manaayein.'

Reacting to the AAP's protest over the BJP's 'failure' to fulfill its poll promise of free LPG cylinders, Tiwari assured that the scheme was in progress and would be implemented in about a month.
