New Delhi, May 24 (PTI) Delhi BJP president Adesh Gupta on Tuesday urged Union Jal Shakti Minister Gajendra Singh Shekhawat to check the quality of water being supplied in the national capital, alleging that people consuming it are falling ill.In a letter to Shekhawat, the BJP leader alleged people are compelled to drink "smelly and contaminated" water and demanded that cases be registered against Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, Water Minister Satyendar Jain and Delhi Jal Board (DJB) vice-chairman Saurabh Bhardwaj.The Delhi government dismissed Gupta"s allegations as false."One can"t even wash hands with it (water being supplied in Delhi), let alone drink it. Samples of contaminated and smelly water from 100 different places should be taken and tested," Gupta said in his letter.At a press conference, the BJP leader showed bottles allegedly containing water supplied by the DJB and said the samples taken from Gokulpuri and Jasola, among other places, smell like sewer water."People say that for over two months they have been getting smelly water supply and are compelled to drink it," he claimed.Kejriwal should apologise to Delhiites because his government is forcing them to consume water that is harming their health, Gupta said.In an official statement, the Delhi government rejected Gupta"s allegations."These are false allegations. There is a general shortage of water in Delhi because Haryana is not releasing the full allocation of water. However, the New Delhi constituency is not being deprived of its share. We urge the BJP to ask its Haryana government to release the full share of Delhi"s water and not to play politics on water," it said.Last week, Delhi Water Minister Satyendar Jain said Haryana is obstructing water supply in the Yamuna river.Water supply in Delhi has reduced by 6-7 per cent with the Haryana government failing to provide the city its share of raw water despite the Supreme Court"s order, Jain said.
