The Election Commission of India has replied to Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convenor Arvind Kejriwal. The Election Commission said that he should not mix the issues of increased ammonia in the Yamuna with the serious allegations of poisoning the Yamuna with mass genocide. This is being considered as an act of war between two countries.
The Election Commission is not satisfied with Arvind Kejriwal's reply. The Election Commission has again sought a reply from Kejriwal.
Kejriwal's reply to the Election Commission
In the case of accusing the water being released from Haryana of being 'poisonous', Aam Aadmi Party convenor Arvind Kejriwal wrote a letter to the Election Commission on Wednesday and gave clarification. However, in this, he did not provide any proof of his allegations against the BJP and the Haryana government of poisoning the Yamuna water. Nor did he give any clarification on the allegations related to biological warfare waged against the people of Delhi.
In the letter, he said that the amount of ammonia in the water coming from Haryana is very high and this water is extremely poisonous. Therefore, a water problem is arising in Delhi. In his 14-page, 31-point letter, he said that his statement was based on facts and he had not violated any law or code of conduct. The Election Commission confirmed that it had received Kejriwal's reply and said that it would decide after looking at his reply on Thursday.
The commission had asked Kejriwal to submit evidence by 8 pm on Wednesday on the allegation of 'poison' in water. In response, Kejriwal said that Delhi gets raw water from Yamuna. The raw water that Delhi received recently is very poisonous. The level of pollution in it is so high that water treatment plants are not able to clean it. The capacity of the treatment plant has reduced due to poisonous water and there is a shortage of clean water in Delhi.
700 percent more than the permitted limit
Kejriwal, citing the letter of the CEO of Delhi Jal Board, said that Yamuna water contains 7 ppm ammonia, which is 700 percent more than the permitted limit. Arvind Kejriwal said that the unchecked release of industrial waste by Haryana was the main reason for this and said that if such toxic water is released continuously, it can pose a serious health risk to the people of Delhi and can also cause death.
The statements he made were to highlight the serious toxicity in the raw water coming from Haryana. However, before his clarification, the Delhi Jal Board has given a report to the Commission, which states that the amount of ammonia in the Yamuna water increases every year during this season. This is nothing new.
The BJP had complained to the Election Commission.
The Commission had sent a notice after the complaint. After Arvind Kejriwal accused the BJP and the Haryana government of mixing poison in the Yamuna water, the BJP complained to the Election Commission. Congress leader Sandeep Dixit also called the allegations false and accused them of getting votes by scaring the people of Delhi. After this, the Commission issued a notice to Kejriwal.
