Delhi Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena.
VK Saxena Meeting On Delhi Pollution: Air pollution in the capital Delhi is increasing as winter progresses. The situation is such that today the government primary schools of Delhi have been closed for two days. While BJP is blaming CM Arvind Kejriwal and Punjab for Delhi air pollution, AAP has put the blame of air pollution on Haryana government. You wrote on X that due to the failure of the Haryana government, pollution is increasing in Delhi and Haryana CM Kumbhakarni is sleeping. On the other hand, CM Kejriwal also seems to be careless about Delhi’s air pollution.
Why is CM Kejriwal carefree?
The problem of air pollution is being seen in Delhi for the last one week. The level of air pollution is increasing daily. In such a situation, Delhi Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena had today called a meeting with CM Arvind Kejriwal and Environment Minister Gopal Rai at Raj Niwas at 6 pm. However, it is not yet clear whether CM Arvind Kejriwal will attend this meeting or not because even today he has been seen campaigning in Chhattisgarh.
AQI crosses 800 in Delhi
Delhi’s air quality was recorded in the severe category on Friday morning. This season, Delhi’s AQI has also crossed the 800 mark. This morning, the AQI of Lodhi Road crossed 500, while the AQI of Anand Vihar was recorded at 865 around 10 am. On the other hand, the air quality index of Noida Sector-62 was recorded at 558.
AAP blames CM Khattar
According to media reports, Delhi’s Kejriwal government has put the blame for the increasing air pollution in the capital on Haryana’s CM Khattar government. While sharing a cutting of a reputed newspaper on the social media handle of its official party, the Delhi government has written that due to the failure of the Haryana government, pollution is increasing in Delhi, out of the 52 most polluted districts of the country, 20 are from Haryana. It is further written in the post that Haryana CM Manohar Lal Khattar Kumbhakarni is sleeping.
Users said – showing your failure
There are mixed reactions from people regarding the post shared by you on X. Many people are busy holding the Haryana government responsible, while many people are targeting the Punjab government and Aam Aadmi Party. The special thing is that in the newspaper cutting that AAP has shared, it is also written that ‘More cases of stubble burning have been registered in Punjab than in Haryana. From September 15 to November 1, cases of stubble burning have been reported at 1296 places in Haryana, while during the same period, cases of stubble burning have been reported at 9594 places in Punjab. It is a matter of relief that this year 46% less stubble has been burnt in Punjab and 38% less in Haryana. In Punjab till November 1, 2022, stubble was burnt at 17846 places while in Haryana, stubble was burnt at 2083 places. Now users are reacting against you by citing this box.
CM Yogi surrounded the Punjab government
UP CM Yogi Adityanath has cornered the Punjab government on air pollution. Addressing a program in Gorakhpur, he said that while going to Delhi, I had landed in Ghaziabad. As soon as I stepped out of the plane, my eyes started burning and I realized it was due to the smog. When I checked NASA satellite images to see areas affected by stubble burning and industrial pollution, I found that the entire Punjab and northern part of Haryana were shown in ‘red’ (indicating stubble burning). Which is a matter of concern.
