New Delhi. Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena, who came to resign from the post of Chief Minister after the Aam Aadmi Party’s defeat in Delhi, took a dig at Yamuna’s bad situation. LG told Delhi CM, you are cursed by Yamuna Maiya. Your government should have made concrete efforts to clean the Yamuna. Also, LG VK Saxena narrated CM Atishi regarding air pollution in Delhi. ABP News has claimed this by quoting sources. At the same time, Atishi did not respond to the Governor’s talk.
Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena also told CM Atishi that he had also warned the chief of Aam Aadmi Party and former Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal about the ‘curse of Yamuna’. Kejriwal had stopped a project to clean the Yamuna river. At the same time, LG also said that to prevent air pollution in Delhi, a letter was written to the Delhi government several times by the LG Secretariat, but no necessary action was taken on it. Let us tell you that LG has accepted the resignation of Atishi from the post of CM, although Atishi will continue to work as the acting Chief Minister till the formation of the new government.
Arvind Kejriwal had come out of jail after getting bail from the Supreme Court in the liquor scam case and resigned from the post of CM and announced to make Atishi as CM. After this, Atishi was sworn in as CM on 21 September 2024. Atishi presented herself as a temporary CM and placed an empty chair (for Arvind Kejriwal) in the CM office next to his chair while taking charge, after which Atishi was on the target of opposition parties.
