Kejriwal turns the table in the CE in response to Yamuna’s claims

In response to the notice of the Electoral Commission (EC) about its accusations that the Haryana government was mixing poison in the Yamuna River, the national coordinator of the AAM AADMI party (AAP), Arvind Kejriwal the health crisis and raw water received The State has recently been “highly contaminated and extremely poisonous” for human health.

Kejriwal caused a controversy earlier this week by saying that Haryana governed by BJP was ‘mixing poison’ in the water of Delhi supplied through Yamuna. Both the BJP and the Congress had complained to the CE against Kejriwal for leveling the accusations of poisoning of the Yamuna River. Acting on your complaint, the survey body had asked him to present a response before 8 pm on Wednesday

While urged to close the matter, the AAP leader also asked the commission to intervene and pass the appropriate instructions to the state of Haryana so that clean water is available to the people of Delhi.

“However, the substitute subigned in this document and more humbly request that their good offices intervene on the main issue of safe water availability and pass the appropriate instructions to the state of Haryana so that the safe amount of water is available for citizens De Delhi, “Kejriwal wrote in a letter to the commission.

In the 14 -page response to the EC, he said that there is no violation of any law or that any code and its statements on Yamuna’s water were made to highlight severe toxicity, the contamination of raw water received from the state governed by BJP

“The statement made by him with respect to the ammonia present in the Yamuna River does not violate section 196, 197 and 353 of Law BNS, 2023 and Section 123 (4) of the representation of the Law of the People, 1951. In addition, It is alleged that these statements violate the code of behavior of the model (MCC). After a careful examination of the facts, the context and the legal provisions, it is respectfully affirmed that the declaration made by the badge is totally protected by the constitutional guarantee of freedom of expression and expression, and no offense or no violation of the code of conduct It is committed by him, ”says the answer.

The letter also stated: “That even at first glance, this statement would not be a stretch of imagination, promote the lack of harmony or enmity between religious, racial, languages ​​or regional groups or castes or communities. Such a statement is not made to create a lack of harmony between such groups or public segment. In the present case, the statement in question does not refer or impute anything against the personal nature or conduct of any candidate that prevents the elections. Instead, it addresses a critical issue of public health governance and environmental security, corroborated by official administrative records.

“The political and constitutional implications of labeling an environmental and public health crisis as an electoral crime are deep and deeply worrying. If the raising of genuine public complaints, particularly related to the basic need of clean water, reduces the pretext of the violations of the electoral law, would establish a dangerous precedent to silence dissent and obstruct democratic responsibility. “

The head of the AAP also declared that there is an ammonia of 7 ppm in the water of Yamuna and the CEO of DJB letter admits that the toxicity is 700% higher than the allowed limit. The root cause of Yamuna’s water identified by the DJB letter is the indiscriminate discharge of industrial waste by Haryana.

“Haryana’s failure in contamination control has resulted in an unprecedented public health crisis. The theme of Haryana’s toxic water supply has also been raised above; DJB has even approached NGT and the Supreme Court, ”said Kejriwal and added that Delhi’s government has no role to play with such a high level of toxic water making Delhi available to Haryana, which is a higher ripurnary state . Due to the high level of toxic content in raw water supplied by Haryana, WTP are operating below the capacity and there is a shortage of water treated in Delhi.
