The Delhi government on Friday moved the Supreme Court to get additional raw supply from neighbouring Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, and Himachal Pradesh amid a severe water crisis in the national capital.

Earlier in the day, Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal claimed that the states sharing borders with the capital had reduced the water supply.

“If the BJP talks to its governments in Haryana and UP and gets some water for Delhi for a month, then the people of Delhi will greatly appreciate this step of the BJP. Such scorching heat is not in anyone’s control. But if we all work together, can we provide relief to the people from this? Kejriwal had posted on social platform X.
