He also expressed gratitude to the party for nominating him as its Speaker candidate.
Gupta alleged that the house had turned into a politically motivated platform for pushing the previous dispensation’s agenda, but now he expects the opposition to play a constructive role.
He further said that healthy discussions must take place in the house, leaving no room for irrelevant topics. The priority should be to discuss topics that are in the interest of the city, he added.
In the past, Gupta raised several issues related to alleged corrupt practices and played a pivotal role in highlighting and addressing them at the right platforms.
Gupta‘s political career began during his college days and has spanned many years.
This is the third time he has been elected MLA from the Rohini assembly constituency. He previously served as a municipal councillor.
