바카라 웹사이트 "The nodal officer of the apex committee, district magistrate East Delhi wrote to the government three times in June to call a meeting, saying there is a warning of a serious situation, but the chief minister refused to budge," he claimed.바카라 웹사이트

바카라 웹사이트 The AAP government, in a statement, claimed that it had been regularly reviewing flood and waterlogging issues in the city in May itself.바카라 웹사이트

바카라 웹사이트Ministers Atishi and Saurabh Bhardwaj on June 9 jointly chaired a meeting where all departments, including the PWD, MCD, I&FC, DJB, DDA and NDMC, were present and preparations for floods and water logging was reviewed, it said.

Co-convener of BJP's legal cell, Bansuri Swaraj, accused the AAP dispensation of trying to cover their "inaction" in handling the flood situation with "lies".바카라 웹사이트

바카라 웹사이트She claimed the reverse flow walls of drains, which prevent back flow of water, were built around 2010 and never repaired by the Kejriwal government. The damaged reverse flow walls caused backflow of drains and inundated Rajghat and other areas, she added.바카라 웹사이트

She said 8 lakh cusecs of water was released in the Yamuna from Hathnikund in 2013 and 8.28 lakh cusecs in 2019, but there was no flood-like situation at that time, but this time only 3.5 lakh cusecs of water was released, causing deluge in the whole of Delhi.

"The reason for this is that the Kejriwal government wasted all the money in its corruption and propaganda, and did not clean the Yamuna and the drains of Delhi," Swaraj claimed.바카라 웹사이트

The AAP leaders have been accusing the saffron party of conspiring to flood Delhi by discharging huge quantity of water in the Yamuna from the Hathnikund barrage.
