#DelhiWaterCrisis | Heatwave and Water Shortages Fuel Delhi's Political Feud
- Updated Jun 20, 2024 12:55 PM IST
The national capital is parched, with water wars raging on the streets of Delhi. Residents are lining up in scorching heat for a few litres of water as an unrelenting heatwave exacerbates the crisis. Further inflaming the situation is a heated war of words between the Delhi and Haryana governments over the release of water into Delhi. Minister Atishi has written to the prime minister, threatening to begin an indefinite hunger strike from June 21 if Delhi's water needs are not met. Haryana has retaliated, accusing the AAP of prioritising corruption over public welfare. Meanwhile, the BJP has led protests against AAP's mismanagement of the water crisis. The political temperature is rising, with demands for water and power in the capital peaking. The question remains: will there be any relief for Delhi's citizens?
