Delhi is facing a severe water crisis as Haryana has reduced the release of water from the Munak Canal, according to Delhi’s Water Minister Atishi. Atishi stated that Haryana is not releasing its share of 1050 cusecs of water from the canal, which will lead to a shortage of water in Delhi in the coming days.
The water shortage in Delhi has raised concerns among residents as the city is already grappling with a heatwave. Atishi appealed to the Haryana government to not politicize the issue of water and release Delhi’s share of water from the Munak Canal.
The reduction in water supply from the Munak Canal has put Delhi at risk of facing a widespread water scarcity situation. With the rising temperatures and increasing demand for water, the shortage could have serious implications for the residents of the national capital.
The Delhi government is working to address the water crisis and ensure that residents have access to an adequate supply of water. Efforts are being made to mitigate the impact of the reduced water release from the Munak Canal and find alternative solutions to meet the city’s water needs.
As the situation unfolds, residents are urged to conserve water and use it judiciously to cope with the impending shortage. The Delhi government is closely monitoring the situation and taking necessary steps to alleviate the water crisis in the city.
