Delhi Minister and AAP leader Atishi on Tuesday, May 28, urged the people of the National Capital to use water rationally whether there is a shortage in that area or not. If the appeal is not effective, the Delhi government will introduce a fine for wasting water.
"Whoever is getting sufficient water should not use it wastefully. I appeal to everyone to not wash their cars with open pipes. If this public appeal is not effective, then we may have to introduce a fine on excess use of water," said Atishi.
Atishi On Water Supply in Delhi:
"Delhi is going through an acute heatwave and Haryana is releasing very little amount of water in Delhi," she added.
