Guwahati, July 17: Assam chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Sunday slammed Arvind Kejriwal led-AAP government for blaming other states for the flood-like situation in Delhi.
Talking to reporters, Sarma said, “The AAP government should not blame other states for the flood like situation in Delhi and rather focus on resolving the issue”.
“Assam also witnesses floods because the water from China and Bhutan but his government has “set a scientific response” instead of blaming their government,” Sarma asserted.
The Aam Aadmi Party blamed the BJP-led governments at the Centre and in Haryana of hatching a conspiracy to plunge the national capital into a flood crisis by releasing water from the Hathnikund Barrage.
“I am seeing various statements that the water is coming from Haryana and UP. Water doesn’t know any geography. We also receive water from Arunachal Pradesh, China and Bhutan but we do not criticise them as we believe that this is a natural phenomenon and we have to set a scientific response for it,” Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma said.
He further added, “Blaming other state governments is not going to solve the problem, it is your problem and you have to resolve it by yourself”.
