Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal is doing politics over the issue of water quality in the national capital, Union Minister Ram Villas Paswan challenged him to name a team comprising city and central officials to test water. Speaking in Lok Sabha during the Zero Hour, the consumer affairs, food and public distribution minister said water supplied by the Delhi Jal Board (DJB) is not fit for drinking. While the rich and middle class use ROs and other purifiers or depend on bottled water, the poor suffer, he said after some Lok Sabha MPs from the capital raised the issue besides that of air pollution.
A war of words has erupted between the Kejriwal-led Aam Aadmi Party and the BJP ahead of the assembly polls in the city after test of water samples drawn from cities across the country showed that Mumbai had the best water quality and Delhi the worst.
