Delhi's water minister, Parvesh Verma, has accused the previous AAP government of engaging in religion-based discrimination against residents seeking water connections in Ballimaran. Verma made these allegations during a visit to Nabi Kareem area, accompanied by officials, where he assessed the local drainage and water supply systems.
Verma claims that while some individuals in Ballimaran were favored, many families from areas such as Ramnagar, Bagichi Raghunath, and Bhadbhuje Wali Gali were denied essential services due to their religion, despite no shortages in resources.
The current BJP government in Delhi, according to Verma, aims to rectify this by ensuring equitable development. He plans to investigate previously overlooked illegal water connections to guarantee fair public service delivery.
