NEW DELHI, Jul. 17, 2023 (TBINN)
With the water-level in River Yamuna inching back to the danger-mark after rising to a record-breaking figure, Delhi’s Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has announced a financial aid of Rs 10, 000 each for the flood-affected families, even as blame game continued over the situation.
A controversy erupted over the issuance of a flood control order by the Aam Aadmi Party (A.A.P.) Government in Delhi, with L.G. office sources alleging that the apex committee for flood-control and preparedness, headed by Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, did not meet in the last two years.
However, the city government denied the charge, saying the meeting to discuss flood preparedness, chaired by ministers Atishi and Saurabh Bharadwaj, took place on May 9, 2023. It also said the flood control order was issued in accordance with the due process.
