New Delhi, April 22 The Delhi government on Wednesday said all dues to the MCDs here have been paid and slammed the BJP for "playing dirty politics" even as the country faces the coronavirus crisis.

The AAP government made the statement after BJP alleged that it has not released the money to the three MCDs and because of which the local bodies are not able to pay salaries.

"These are baseless allegations. All dues have been paid. It is very unfortunate that BJP is playing dirty politics in such difficult times, especially when Delhi's AAP government is fully cooperating and working with the Centre to tackle coronavirus in the best interests of the country and people of Delhi. We appeal to BJP to stop playing dirty politics," the Delhi government said in a statement.
