For the last few days, many areas of Delhi are in the grip of flood and waterlogging. Thousands of people were evacuated to safer places. Three children who went out to play in the water filled on the road died. The water reached important places in Delhi as well as the Supreme Court. Delhi was badly affected by this flood, meanwhile the Aam Aadmi Party has blamed the BJP for this. The Aam Aadmi Party said that the BJP is responsible for the floods in Delhi. The BJP government in Haryana deliberately suddenly released more water in the Yamuna river towards Delhi. This caused the Yamuna to swell and water entered the city of Delhi as well. Aam Aadmi Party leader and Delhi government minister Saurabh Bhardwaj alleged that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)-led governments at the Center and in Haryana deliberately diverted water towards the national capital. Delhi’s cabinet minister Saurabh Bhardwaj, while addressing a press conference here, said that there was no heavy rain in Delhi in the last 3-4 days, yet the water level in Yamuna reached 208.66 metres.
Saurabh Bhardwaj said, “Water is released from Hathinikund Barrage into three canals – Western Canal, Eastern Canal and Yamuna. Between July 9 and 13, as part of a conspiracy, water was released from the Yamuna canal only towards Delhi. No water was released in the western and eastern canals.” Similar allegations were made by him and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Friday. Lieutenant Governor V.K. Saxena, due to which Vikas Marg was allegedly flooded. There was no immediate reaction from the BJP on the latest allegation made by the Aam Aadmi Party on Saturday.
The AAP and the BJP have been at loggerheads for years now, but the feud escalated in May, when the Centre passed an ordinance on the control of services in Delhi.
Who is responsible for flood in Delhi is it Aam Aadmi Party or the central government’s , only the leaders know this game of politics. But what is the fault of all these people who have given up their homes due to floods, don’t have a roof over their head to live and don’t have bread to eat, does the public vote for the leaders so that they do appeasement politics in times of trouble?
