Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) National Convener Arvind Kejriwal, on Tuesday, launched round-the-clock clean drinking water supply in Pandav Nagar DDA flats under Central Delhi's Rajinder Nagar assembly constituency.

On the occasion, Kejriwal set an example by drinking the water from a tap. "We promised clean water to every household in Delhi 24x7; today, I feel proud to announce that the mission has begun," he declared.

Accompanied by Delhi CM Atishi and local MLA Durgesh Pathak, the AAP chief reaffirmed his commitment to meet the city's water requirement of 1,250 MGD in the coming years.

He called it an important occasion as it has been a dream for everyone that Delhi should receive clean drinking water directly from taps, that too round the clock, even on the third or fourth floor of a building, without the need of pumps.

The AAP supremo said he visited a few homes, drank water directly from the taps before pouring it into a glass in front of cameras to drink it.
