Pollution and politics have once again clashed in Delhi. A video has emerged from a Messi-related event at a stadium in the capital, showing slogans against Chief Minister Rekha Gupta upon her arrival. It is claimed that slogans of 'Down with Rekha Gupta' were chanted. Congress claims Delhi's public is openly responding to vote thieves.
Congress leader Supriya Shrinate shared this video on social media, describing it as an expression of public anger. Aam Aadmi Party leader Sanjay Singh also shared the video on Platform X, stating it should be displayed on all platforms.
Slogans erupt as CM Rekha Gupta arrives at stadium
AAP leader Saurabh Bhardwaj, too, shared the video on his Platform X handle, stating that when the Chief Minister arrived at the stadium, slogans were raised by Delhiites. He linked it to the escalating pollution and the government's failure.
Leaders have presented serious statistics concerning pollution. It's said that nearly two million deaths occur annually in India due to pollution, highlighting the alarming concern.
The situation in Delhi NCR due to pollution continues to deteriorate. In the mornings, the capital is enveloped in a thick layer of fog. Evenings face significantly reduced visibility, with breathing difficulties affecting many residents in various areas.
Government failing entirely to control pollution
Political parties accuse the government of complete failure in controlling pollution. Yet, the government has not yet responded to the whole issue.
