AAP alleges conspiracy The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has alleged conspiracy to disrupt water supply in Delhi by unknown persons.

“In such a situation where we are short of water, there is a conspiracy to break water pipelines, troubling Delhites even more," Delhi Minister Atishi told PTI.

She alleged that Delhi Jal Board teams patrol water pipelines, and yesterday they found a leakage in the main pipeline of South Delhi at Sonia Vihar.

“When our repair teams reached the spot, they discovered that big bolts had been cut and removed from the pipeline, indicating a conspiracy.”

Atishi has also written a letter to the Commissioner of Delhi about this and requested him to provide security to the pipelines.

Who cut pipeline, asks Delhi Minister Delhi Minister Saurabh Bharadwaj said that some people are causing leakage deliberately. "Yesterday the nuts and bolts of the pipeline were found cut in South Delhi. Who cut them?," he asked.

Bansuri Swaraj protests BJP MP Bansuri Swaraj held a protest at the Delhi Jal Board office in RK Puram and termed the water crisis as ‘fabricated’ one by the AAP party.

Swaraj said that the IMD had warned in March itself that there was going to be severe heat in Delhi, but the Kejriwal government did nothing because it had no intention to work.

Claiming that Haryana is providing sufficient water, Swaraj said, “However, 40 percent of the water is getting wasted as Delhi government did not carried-out maintenance work in last 10 years.”
