HER CLAIMS ARE AKIN TO RUBBING SALT INTO THE WOUNDS OF DELHIITES: BJP
Addressing a press conference here, Atishi said Delhi is grappling with a water crisis since Haryana is not releasing the capital’s share of water and claimed that over 28 lakh people are affected.
“We have to understand that the total water supply in Delhi is 1,050 MGD. Out of this 1,050 MGD, 613 MGD comes to the Yamuna from Haryana.
“The amount of water that was supposed to come from Haryana yesterday, that is, on June 18, which was 613 MGD, has come down to 513 MGD. This means that Delhi is facing a water shortage of 100 MGD today,” she said. Elaborating on what the 100 MGD water shortage means, she said one MGD water meets the daily water demand of nearly 28,500 people.
“If Delhi is getting 100 MGD less water from Haryana, it means more than 28 lakh people are getting less water. This is the situation of Delhi today,” she added.
The minister rued that at a time when Delhiites need more water due to this extreme heat, there is a shortage of water in the national Capital.
“Today, I have written a letter to Prime MinisterNarendra Modi ji and I have requested him that now the suffering of the people of Delhi is crossing all limits.
