The political tension in Delhi escalated as the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) took sharp jabs at the BJP government, accusing it of failing to manage urban infrastructure amidst severe waterlogging following heavy rains. The AAP labeled it a 'marvel' of what they derisively termed the BJP's 'four-engine model'.
Prominent AAP leaders, including former Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and MLA Atishi, questioned the BJP's effectiveness by sharing visual evidence of inundated streets and facilities across the capital. Among them were crucial locations like Connaught Place and major hospitals, leading to widespread public frustration.
The BJP, on the defensive, cited efforts made to address drainage issues, countering accusations with claims of prior AAP negligence. However, as the blame game continues, residents grapple with the aftermath of unexpected flooding that has disrupted daily life in the city.
