Water crisis in Delhi:
The issue of water availability has been a major point of contention in Delhi.
Earlier, the national capital faced a severe water supply shortage during a heatwave leading to a political battle between the ruling Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and the opposition the Bharatiya Janata Party, which organised several 'matka phod' protests against the Arvind Kejriwal Government.
On the other side, AAP leaders accused BJP's Haryana Government of withholding water. AAP also claimed that Delhi's Lieutenant Governor did nothing to help the people of Delhi and was acting like a politician and not a bureaucrat.
Delhi's Water Minister Atishi Marlena had also staged an indefinite hunger strike, which she had to call off due to health issues.
