This special report focuses on the intense political and public debate over Delhi's hazardous air quality under the new BJP government led by Chief Minister Rekha Gupta. The segment captures a heated exchange between Delhi's Environment Minister Manjinder Singh Sirsa and a citizen concerned about the city's pollution. 'To give you clean air in Delhi, the BJP government has succeeded in giving you the maximum clean air,' Mr. Sirsa claimed during the discussion. The minister's statement comes in response to accusations of '10 years old dirty air,' a reference to the previous AAP administration's tenure. While citizens and opposition parties accuse the government of inaction and data manipulation, the BJP maintains it is working on a war footing, aiming for an ideal AQI of 50, even as current levels frequently enter the 'very poor' and 'severe' categories.
