NEW DELHI: The AAP on Tuesday staged a protest outside the Delhi Assembly over the worsening pollution in the national capital, demanding accountability from the BJP-led government.
Holding banners and shouting "Pradushan par jawab do (Answer on pollution)" slogans, the AAP MLAs, led by Leader of Opposition (LoP) Atishi, demanded answers from the ruling party.
Speaking to IANS, Gopal Rai, the AAP MLA and former Delhi Environment Minister, said, "This time, people in Delhi have had to suffer severely due to pollution. It is the responsibility of the Legislative Assembly to discuss this issue. The government must answer why it failed and why it did not fulfil its responsibilities."
He further claimed that the government is "running away" from discussion.
