Gates Of Barrage Releasing Water To Delhi Shut By Haryana: Atishi
Delhi is not receiving its allotted water as Haryana has closed all the gates of the Hathnikund barrage, Water Minister Atishi alleged on Sunday, vowing to continue her indefinite hunger strike over the issue.
She stated that the closure of the barrage gates on the Yamuna river has resulted in a water shortage in the national capital. Her hunger strike, demanding the release of Delhi's share of water amid a severe shortage during a scorching heat wave, entered its third day on Sunday.
AAP has stated that doctors advised Atishi to end her fast. The minister claimed the Haryana government asked how it would release water for Delhi when it did not have adequate supply.
"But yesterday (Saturday), when many journalists went to the Hathnikund barrage, from where water is released for Delhi, everyone took photos and made videos in which it is clearly visible that there is water in the barrage. But the gates from which the water is released for Delhi are closed," Atishi claimed, PTI reported.
