Delhi is grappling with a water shortage crisis due to rising ammonia levels in the Yamuna river, triggering a political blame game between the AAP and the BJP.

The Delhi Jal Board (DJB) announced it would rationalize water supply after the Wazirabad water treatment plant reported a significant decrease in production.

AAP officials pointed fingers at Haryana's BJP government for industrial dumping, while BJP leaders stated Delhi's outdated infrastructure is to blame for the ongoing crisis.
