Chaos erupted at Delhi Water Minister Atishi's hunger strike against the city's water crisis, as a group of protesters chanted slogans and brandished placards on Saturday.

Accusations flew between AAP and BJP, with AAP claiming BJP orchestrated the disruption. BJP retaliated, labeling the hunger strike a political spectacle involving civil defence volunteers and bus marshals.

Atishi, undeterred, vowed to continue her fast, drawing inspiration from Gandhiji's Satyagraha, until Delhi's residents receive their rightful water share from Haryana. She accused Haryana of reducing water supply, exacerbating the crisis.
