As toxic smog blankets Delhi and the Yamuna River turns into a frothy cesspool, political leaders appear more interested in pointing fingers than addressing the suffocating crisis. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) launched a fiery attack on the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government, accusing it of failing to tackle Delhi’s pollution problem.
BJP national spokesperson Pradeep Bhandari minced no words, stating, “Their only intention is to play with the health of Delhi’s public.” He condemned the AAP-led government for its inaction, pointing out that while other cities breathe easier, Delhi’s air quality continues to plummet. “They promised cleaner air if Punjab’s government changed, but look around—nothing has improved,” Bhandari said, alluding to AAP’s unkept promises.
BJP Secretary Harish Khurana took the battle further, slamming Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal for making grand declarations without results. “Where are Kejriwal’s claims of taking a dip in the Yamuna? The river is still poisoned with foam. It’s a disgrace!” Khurana blasted.
The most scathing rebuke came from BJP MP Manoj Tiwari, who lambasted the AAP for being reactive instead of proactive. “This government only wakes up when disaster strikes. The day they learn to act before the crisis, Delhi might have a fighting chance,” Tiwari remarked, urging voters to consider a change in the upcoming elections.
While the AQI spirals to alarming levels and the Yamuna River remains a toxic mess, politicians bicker over who’s to blame. Instead of taking decisive action, they are busy scoring political points. With elections looming just months away, Delhi’s pollution has become more of a political weapon than an urgent issue—and the city’s residents are paying the price for this dangerous game.
