Delhi LG Vinay Kumar Saxena hit out at Arvind Kejriwal over the pollution level in Yamuna. Delhi lieutenant governor Vinai Kumar Saxena on Monday lashed out at former Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal, holding him “responsible” for the pollution level in river Yamuna.
In a scathing letter to the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) convenor, Saxena wrote, “The Yamuna has reached its highest pollution level this year. I will personally hold you responsible for this since you filed a petition in the Supreme Court and stopped the cleaning work being done in the Yamuna. I have repeatedly requested you to go out in the city and assess the situation.”
The day before yesterday, I also requested you through my post on “X” to visit Rangpuri and Kapashera, but on this occasion, you did not go there yourself; instead, you thought it appropriate to send your own declared temporary Chief Minister, Atishi, there,” ANI quoted the lieutenant governor as saying.
Any way, it is a matter of happiness that you have now started taking cognizance of your responsibilities. Ten years down the line, you have been able to see the worsening conditions of Delhi and the plight and helplessness of its people. I assure you that I will continue to bring these issues to your attention, too, in the coming times, the Delhi LG added.
