Harassment of scorching heat and heatwave continues in Delhi. The temperature has crossed 49 degrees and water scarcity has started in Delhi. Due to this intense heat in Delhi, the demand for electricity is at a record level. Power demand has reached 8,302 MW. Electricity consumption in Delhi is about 900 MW more than last year.
If we talk about water shortage, water is being supplied only once in many areas of Delhi. There are many areas where water is not supplied even once a day. In such areas water is being supplied by water tankers.
Water shortage in Delhi The Delhi government says that the water shortage is due to Haryana not releasing enough water into the Yamuna river. The Delhi government is taking this matter to the Supreme Court.
It is worth noting that in the areas where water is being supplied by water tankers, the local people have to wait in line for one bucket of water in the middle of the hot summer afternoon.
Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has said about the water shortage that the demand for water in Delhi has increased a lot in this scorching summer. Water supply to Delhi from neighboring states has also been reduced. Which means that the demand has increased a lot and the supply has decreased. It has to be solved together.
Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal said that I see that BJP friends are protesting against us. The solution to the problem will not come from this demonstration. I request everyone with folded hands that this is not the time for politics, rather we should think together for the relief of the people of Delhi. If the BJP gives Delhi some water by talking to its governments of Haryana and Uttar Pradesh for a month, then the people of Delhi will appreciate the BJP very much for this work. This scorching heat is not of anyone’s hands. But we all have to work together to relieve people from this.
Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has said on power supply that the entire country is experiencing unprecedented heat this time. Water and electricity crisis has started due to this severe heat across the country. Delhi had a peak electricity demand of 7,438 MW last year, which has increased to 8,302 MW this year. Despite all this, the power situation in Delhi is under control and the problem of power cuts is not happening here like in other states.
