Demonstrations at Delhi Jal Board Offices in Delhi including Varunalaya
New Delhi, 5th June. Under the leadership of BJP Delhi Pradesh President Shri Satish Upadhyaythe workers staged demonstrations at various Delhi Jal Board Offices of Delhi including its headquarters Varunalaya today to protest against severe scarcity of water in Delhi and inflated water supply bills.
The BJP workers of Karol Bagh District under the leadership of Shri Satish Upadhyay and District President Shri Rajan Tiwari assembled at Faiz Road and proceeded to the headquarters of Delhi Jal Board Varunalaya and staged demonstration at 11 am.
Addressing the demonstrators Shri Satish Upadhyay said that Shri Arvind Kejriwal came to power by showing golden dreams to the people of Delhi and after that he made a U-turn on his promise to supply power at 50 percent reduced rates and free water to all and now he has forced the people of Delhi to crave for water & power and he is busy in playing political gimmicks.
Shri Upadhyay said that Delhi is being supplied more raw water from Haryana, UP and Uttrakhand but Delhi Government has failed to supply water to the people according to their needs. There is not only scarcity of water in Delhi but the water which is being supplied is also not worth drinking and the supply of free drinking water has become a matter of joke. Every day we are receiving complaints in our office from the people saying that even the people living in two room flats and having a 500 litres tank and getting supply of water only on alternate days yet they are being served bills of Rs. 2000 to 2500.
Shri Upadhyay said that Delhi Jal Board has become a white elephant and it has not only failed to supply water but also failed in maintaining the sewer system. The Yamuna River of the capital of the country is the most polluted river today because the sewage treatment plants of the government are not working. Due to corruption in the Delhi Jal Board the sewer system is not being maintained and even for small defects in the system the officers and MLAs are approving contracts for replacing the sewer line and benefitting due to it.
