Delhi Pradesh Congress Committee (DPCC) President Shri Devender Yadav said that despite AQI crossing 400 at more than half a dozen places in the capital today, the Rekha Gupta government has completely failed to find a permanent solution to the worsening pollution in Delhi in 10 months. Delhi’s Chief Minister Rekha Gupta has proved her helplessness in controlling pollution in Delhi. We want to go along with the government in every step to control pollution, if the government is really serious on pollution control, then immediately call an all-party meeting and work on the ideas and measures of all political parties and come forward to protect the health of the people of Delhi. Devender Yadav said that the Congress always works on issues of public concern and expressed gratitude to the Leader of Opposition Shri Rahul Gandhi for effectively raising the serious issues related to the health of the people of Delhi in Parliament on the rising pollution across the country. The government needs to urgently put in place a comprehensive and decisive national plan against choking pollution.
BJP has not been able
Devender Yadav said that the BJP has not been able to solve any crisis related to Delhi except making big announcements, while the people of Delhi have been facing a serious crisis of pollution for the last 8-10 years. He said that during the 15 years of Congress rule in Delhi, people were never bothered by pollution because to control pollution, we took a revolutionary step by making Delhi kerosene-free, increasing the green cover of Delhi, shutting down diesel buses in one stroke and converting the entire transport system into CNG. The previous Aam Aadmi Party government and the current BJP government did not work to increase the occupancy of the DTC fleet as per the need, due to which people have to take out their vehicles and pollution is continuously taking a dangerous form due to the aging buses plying on the roads.
