New Delhi [India], January 28 (ANI): Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) spokesperson Priyanka Kakkar on Tuesday backed her party's national convenor, Arvind Kejriwal and accused the BJP of playing "dirty politics" over the quality of water supplied to Delhi from Haryana.
Kakkar alleged that the water is "poisoned" and contains extremely high levels of ammonia, making it hazardous for human consumption.
She further said that Arvind Kejriwal is standing like a shield for the residents of Delhi., adding that when the water came, our engineers stopped that water and did not let it enter Delhi.
"Unfortunately, the BJP is doing its dirty politics even on an issue like water. Water in Delhi comes either from Uttar Pradesh or Haryana. The water that the Haryana government is providing right now is poisoned. The ammonia level is 700 times; it is extremely dangerous for humans to drink and it cannot even be treated. This has been done deliberately because they want the people of Delhi to drink this water and die and the blame for this will be on the Aam Aadmi Party," Kakkar told ANI.
Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convener Arvind Kejriwal yesterday levelled serious allegations against the Bharatiya Janata Party, stating that the BJP-ruled Haryana government has "poisoned" the Yamuna water supplied to Delhi so that "people die" and the blame comes on the AAP.
"BJP's Haryana government has poisoned the water in Yamuna. If this water had entered Delhi only to be mixed with the drinking water, many people would have died in Delhi. It would have caused mass genocide," the former Delhi chief minister alleged. Kejriwal said in a press conference while claiming that the alertness of the Delhi Jal Board prevented the mixing of alleged poisoned water with drinking water.
Kejriwal's remarks prompted sharp reactions from BJP. Haryana CM Nayab Singh Saini warned to file a defamation suit against AAP national convenor Arvind Kejriwal over his remarks on the pollution in the Yamuna river.
"For these blatantly false and disgusting statements, Kejriwal should immediately apologise to the people of Haryana and Delhi for this statement; otherwise, we will file a defamation suit against him," Saini said. (ANI)
