Hundreds of BJP and Congress workers on Tuesday held protests outside chief minister Arvind Kejriwal’s residence demanding immediate improvement in the power and water supply in the national capital.
The police used water canons to disperse the BJP protesters who had assembled in large numbers.
Attacking Mr Kejriwal, Delhi BJP chief Satish Upadhyay said while Delhi was facing severe water and power crisis, the chief minister was busy fulfilling his political ambitions in Goa and Punjab.
“The government has turned a blind eye to the issues of power outages and water crisis in the city. The Chief minister is on a Goa trip and the minister in-charge of water is touring Punjab.
“There are areas which are reeling under severe shortage of water and there are power cuts for over three hours a day affecting water supply. This government lacks vision and administrative control. While Delhiites are craving for water, the chief minister is busy in his political expansion in Goa and Punjab,” Upadhyay said. Holding pots in their hands, the women workers raised slogans against Kejriwal.
