Criticising the AAP, Delhi BJP President Virendra Sachdeva on Tuesday said the Atishi-led government has failed to tackle the city’s persistent pollution issues.

Sachdeva claimed that the government lacks both determination and a concrete action plan to combat pollution effectively.

Referring to Chief Minister Atishi’s press conference on Tuesday, Sachdeva remarked that it was devoid of substance, providing little detail on measures taken to address pollution or any future strategies.

The BJP president pointed out two major sources of Delhi’s winter pollution: stubble burning in Punjab and dust from construction sites and roads. According to Sachdeva, the chief minister made “empty promises” without outlining any substantial steps by her administration.

The BJP leader also took aim at Delhi environment minister Gopal Rai, stating, “Only in Delhi can a minister claim the air is clean in the morning, ban firecrackers in the afternoon, and implement emergency Graded Response Action Plan (GRAP) measures by night.”
