AAP Delhi chief Saurabh Bharadwaj condemned the BJP and central government on Friday for dismissing a proposal to implement artificial rain aimed at mitigating the city's severe winter pollution.
In a press conference, Bharadwaj criticized the now-resurrected artificial rain plan slated for June, arguing that efforts should focus on the high-pollution winter months. He accused the BJP of credit-seeking when natural rain occurs.
Bharadwaj also addressed an FIR by the Anti-Corruption Branch, linking it to delays in other central projects, and defending the right to protest peacefully amid growing political discord.
