Delhi Congress chief Yadav urges LG for probe into Rs 6856 cr. 'Yamuna cleaning scam' by AAP govt

New Delhi, Nov 1 (UNI) Delhi Congress chief Devender Yadav has written to the Lieutenant Governor Vinai Kumar Saxena, demanding a probe into alleged corruption under the cover of Yamuna cleaning by the previous Aam Aadmi Party government, and has sought his active intervention in the Rs 6,856 crore alleged scam.
The Congress leader said that the report of the Centre for Science and Environment (CSE) has revealed that despite spending Rs 6,856 crore for cleaning of Yamuna from 2017 to 2022, there was no significant improvement in the condition of the toxic river, which continues to be highly polluted with sewage and industrial effluents.
Yadav has accused the AAP and the BJP of not being serious about the health of city's residents, alleging that for over 11 years, the previous government led by Arvind Kejriwal and the present government for the last 8 months have failed to control air, and water pollution.
