AAP, BJP trade barbs over froth-laden Yamuna, again

October 20, 2025

The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Sunday again traded barbs over the presence of froth in the Yamuna river, even as chief minister Rekha Gupta inspected the Vasudev Ghat ahead of Chhath, from October 25 to 28 this year.

AAP Delhi chief Saurabh Bhardwaj on Sunday shared visuals of the froth-laden Yamuna near the Okhla barrage in a post on X, alleging that all tasks by the BJP’s “four-engine government were being completed in photos and videos, and not in reality”.

“The chemical that the previous Delhi government sprayed in Yamuna, is being sprayed by the current government. If Rekha Gupta says that the water in Yamuna is clean, then I ask her and Parvesh Verma to come with me and drink a litre of Yamuna water. I will be convinced that the Yamuna is now clean,” he said.
