October 22, 2024

L-G VK Saxena on Monday shared images of the toxic froth-covered surface of the Yamuna, questioning those responsible for keeping the river clean.

- @ New Delhi

Saxena without naming anyone questioned those who claimed to rejuvenate the Yamuna and make people dip in its clean water, and who stalled the work for making the river pollution-free.

The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) convener Arvind Kejriwal ahead of Assembly polls in 2020 had promised to rid the Yamuna of heavy pollution and enable people to take a dip in its water by 2025.
