Delhi Water Crisis LIVE: Delhi Blames Haryana For Tanker Mafia | Delhi Goes Bone Dry | India Today

Amid the ongoing water crisis in Delhi, the Haryana government on Wednesday told the Supreme Court that no excess water was released by Himachal Pradesh to send it to Delhi. The top court had earlier this month asked the Himachal Pradesh government to release 137 cusecs of excess water to Haryana with prior information so that the water could be released to Delhi accordingly. The Haryana government alleged that their Himachal Pradesh counterparts claimed that they had released 137 cusecs of unused Yamuna water share to Tajewala (Hathnikund Barrage) on the river Yamuna, without giving any details about their actual usage of water in June. "Hence, the same be released to NCT Delhi in compliance of the aforesaid orders of the Honourable Supreme Court in the matter", an affidavit filed by the Haryana government said. Pointing towards the 'anomaly' of the Himachal Pradesh government with regard to the directions of the court, the affidavit further stated "It was Himachal Pradesh's case that it was ready and willing to release the surplus drinking water available with it. It was never the case of the state of Himachal Pradesh before this Hon'ble Court that 137 Cusecs of unutilised Yamuna water was already flowing from the territory of Himachal Pradesh to Tajewala". #delhiwatercrisis #delhi #delhinews #delhiwaterissue #delhilive #live #haryana #indiatoday #indiatodaynews #indiatodaylive Subscribe to India Today for NEW VIDEOS EVERY DAY and make sure to enable Push Notifications so you'll never miss a new video.
