House of the Municipal Corporation of Delhi witnessed a massive uproar by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) councillors on Monday over the havoc triggered by heavy rainfall and the surge in the water level of the Yamuna River.
Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Councilors raised slogans against Delhi Chief Minister and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Convenor Arvind Kejriwal. BJP Councilors can be seen holding placards with Jhoota Kahi ka, and Sharm karo Kejriwal written on it. In response, Shelly Oberoi adjourned the House, however, the uproar continued. However, speaking to ANI later in the day, Shelly Oberoi said, BJP has to accept that they're not ruling in the MCD House since the Delhi public gave the mandate to AAP in the corporation...We are waiting for the SC's verdict on nominated councillors and until the pending verdict comes we shouldn't focus on party politics and focus on technicalities as per the DMC act and constitution to form ward committees. The water level of Yamuna River was recorded at a level of 205.98 meters at 4 pm on July 27. On the same day at 10:00 am, it was recorded at 205.83 meters. In the NCR, the Hindon River witnessed a rise in the water level flooding several low-laying and flood plains of Noida on Thursday. Visuals showed that the area near Ecotech 3 got submerged following the surged water level due to which many vehicles got stuck in the water. Earlier, Yamuna's water level in Delhi dropped below the danger mark on Tuesday, the level was recorded at 205.32 metres at 7 pm. The rise in water level has been a matter of concern as it has led to a flood-like situation in the national capital and adjoining regions. The river water level had been hovering around the danger mark of 205.33 metres for the last few days after reaching an all-time high of 208.66 metres on July 13. (ANI)
