How Kejriwal govt contributed to the worsening of Covid crisis in Delhi

Published

on

India is in the grip of a disastrous second wave of the COVID-19 outbreak. However, the pandemic’s devastation is nowhere more seen than in Delhi, the national capital of India, one of the worst-hit cities by the contagion. For the last few days, Delhi has recorded more than 22,000 new cases of coronavirus daily, putting tremendous pressure on the health infrastructure. The crisis, nevertheless, has brought to fore the criminal incompetence and negligence of the Arvind Kejriwal-led Aam Aadmi Party(AAP) government.

Oxygen supplies in Delhi are running out, there is a scarcity of Remdesivir, a key drug for some COVID patients. Besides, there is also a big shortage of beds for patients in both the government and private hospitals of Delhi.

While other states have started receiving oxygen through Indian Railway’s oxygen express, the Railways is yet to receive requisition from the Delhi government for the transportation of oxygen.

An RTI reply dated 8 April has revealed that the Arvind Kejriwal-led AAP government has spent more than Rs 100 crores from January 2021 to March 2021 on advertisements and publicity of their party through various online and offline mediums.

After Kejriwal’s government was questioned by the High Court of Delhi one would have expected the AAP leader to address the oxygen transportation issues bedeviling the supply in Delhi. However, hours later Kejriwal did what he always does – tweets.

For the Kejriwal-led Delhi government, keeping Delhites safe from the pandemic of coronavirus was not on its priority list. It was more interested in advertising and publicity.

Vashi Residents Complain Over Poor Quality Of Water Supply.

The Water supply

Certain areas of the city have been receiving polluted water for the past ten days, despite the fact that Navi Mumbai residents are complaining about an inadequate water supply. They expressed dissatisfaction with the water they were receiving, claiming it was contaminated with visible worms.

For the previous three days, contaminated water has been provided to us. A Sector 10, Vashi homeowner stated, “We noticed the water supply for a few days and then brought up the issue with the NMMC water supply department.”

We assumed that the clogs in our above water tanks must have caused contamination of the water. We thus used sodium hypochlorite to clean the water tanks, but even after that, we continue to receive contaminated water, the resident continued. After a few more days of observation, the locals notified the NMMC water department, who responded quickly and saw that the area was receiving water. The homeowner stated, “We hope an early redress of the same and the civic authorities are looking into the issue.”

The households were receiving polluted water because of dirty overhead tanks, but now they are receiving safe water, according to a representative from NMMC’s water department who was called. “We are implementing all essential measures to guarantee that the residents receive clean drinking water,” the representative continued.

Navi Mumbai Metro Finally Opens After 12 Years of Wait

Published

on

The much-anticipated Navi Mumbai metro has officially begun operating, with Line 1’s inaugural service starting on Friday at 3 PM. For the convenience of the general population, the planning agency CIDCO started metro service operations on Line 1, which covers the distance between Belapur and Pendhar.

CIDCO declared that services on the 11.10-kilometer route were being opened to the public without an official program, as per CM Shinde’s direction. The project was supposed to be opened by Prime Minister Modi, but it took five months to open. The Maharashtra government was criticized for the delayed launch of the Metro line, even though it was ready to operate, since the PMO did not support the idea.

Modern air-conditioned coaches are a proud feature of the Navi Mumbai metro, which has entrance and departure ports on both the north and south sides of the metro stations. One essential component of the Navi Mumbai Metro is the presence of business establishments in the concourse area. The platforms also include passenger announcement systems, CCTV, and specifically made restrooms for those with disabilities.

Navi Mumbai is slated to be the 16th city in India to benefit from metro connection, which would provide reliable and effective transit throughout the whole city. This ensures locals have access to an excellent urban transportation infrastructure.

In addition, Line 1 creates links with NH 48 and the Vasai Road-Roha Line, forming an interconnected transit concept for the future.
