Delhi BJP President Virendra Sachdeva stated that the result of Smt. Rekha Gupta government’s eight month long commitment and efforts toward cleaning the Yamuna that today the river’s water is not only fit for taking a dip but also pure enough for aachman (ritual drinking). Sachdeva said that on October 25, 2024, ten days before Chhath Puja, he had taken a dip in the Yamuna at the ITO ghat in Delhi to expose the river’s plight before the world. The world witnessed that the Yamuna had become like a filthy drain, and that dip had landed him in the hospital.
Kejriwal government’s loot in the name of cleaning
That dip, he said, exposed the Kejriwal government’s loot in the name of cleaning the Yamuna, and with the blessings of Yamuna Ji and Chhath Maiya, the BJP government was formed in Delhi. Virendra Sachdeva further stated that as a result of Smt. Rekha Gupta government’s determined and sincere efforts toward Yamuna cleaning, today, on October 23, 2025, Delhi BJP spokesperson and environmental expert Dr. Anil Gupta performed aachman (drank the holy water) of Yamuna at Kalindi Kunj and ITO ghats in front of journalists.
Performed aachman of Yamuna water live on
He added that today, on October 23, 2025, Dr. Anil Gupta not only performed aachman of Yamuna water live on TV but also presented online monitoring data proving that as a result of eight months of cleaning efforts by the Rekha Gupta government, the Yamuna water has no foul smell, its oxygen level ranges between 4.5 and 5.5, and its pH is 7.5 — close to normal. The Delhi BJP President said that whether it was Yamuna Maiya or Chhath Maiya, the Arvind Kejriwal government committed corruption in their names, and today, it is because of that corruption that they are no longer in power.
