‘Baseless Political Drama’: AAP, BJP Trade Barbs Over Chhath Puja Preparations, Yamuna Pollution

The Aam Aadmi Party on Sunday claimed that the Bharatiya Janata Party government in Delhi had created a “fake Yamuna” by filling an artificial pond with filtered water for Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s ceremonial dip for Chhath Puja.

Modi will take part in the Hindu festival Chhath Puja at the Vasudev Ghat in northern Delhi on Tuesday.

The Aam Aadmi Party’s Delhi chief Saurabh Bharadwaj claimed the artificial pond had been filled with filtered water from the Wazirabad treatment plant pipeline that supplies drinking water to Delhi.
