What did AAP’s Delhi Unit Chief Saurabh Bharadwaj allege about the Yamuna river post-Chhath Puja?
The BJP had created a 'fake Yamuna' using filtered water for the festivalSaurabh Bharadwaj claimed that the BJP had temporarily filled a section of the Yamuna near Vasudev Ghat with clean, filtered water during Chhath Puja to create a deceptive appearance of a clean river. After the festival, he alleged, workers began dismantling the secret pipeline that supplied this filtered water, causing the river to revert to its usual polluted state. He described this act as illegal, noting that tapping into a 'rising main' pipeline is a criminal offense. Bharadwaj even held black, polluted water in his hands during a press conference to emphasize his point. The controversy reflects ongoing political tensions over environmental management in Delhi.

What was Delhi’s Air Quality Index (AQI) level on November 3, 2025, according to CPCB data?
366 (Very Poor category)On November 3, 2025, Delhi’s overall Air Quality Index (AQI) deteriorated to 366, falling in the 'Very Poor' category as per Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) data. This marked a sharp rise from the previous day's AQI of 303. Fifteen monitoring stations recorded 'Severe' levels (above 400), including Wazirpur, which reported the highest AQI at 413. The poor air quality was attributed to weak wind speeds (below 8 kmph) and a low ventilation index, which trapped pollutants. Health advisories warned of breathing discomfort, especially for vulnerable groups such as children, the elderly, and those with pre-existing respiratory or cardiac conditions.
