Bharatiya Janata Party leader (BJP) MP, Gautam Gambhir slammed Chief Minister, Arvind Kejriwal for waterlogging in Delhi. The monsoon rains caused waterlogging in several parts of the capital city. Referring to Kejriwal’s campaigning activities in different states, Gambhir said, “When the monsoon came, you started campaigning in Goa. Before that when COVID came, you went into isolation. Whenever the people of Delhi needed you, you do not even leave the house. Now come and see what has happened to your Delhi”.

Heavy monsoon rains cause waterlogging in Delhi

Gambhir also put up a picture of a waterlogged road in Delhi and quoted a Bollywood song that was directed at Kejriwal. The tweet said, “Nadan parindey ghar aaja!” which meant, ‘come home innocent bird’. Gambhir also said,
“I request the CM of Delhi with folded hands to save your own city, don’t make another state like Delhi. People of Delhi are suffering for the last six years. I do not want the people of other states to suffer the same way.”
