A Haryana court has summoned Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal over allegations of poisoning the Yamuna river. The court acted upon a complaint filed by a Haryana resident who accused Kejriwal of making false statements about the water quality of the river, resulting in public harm. The case stems from remarks made by Kejriwal regarding the river’s pollution, which were allegedly aimed at political gain. The summons has raised significant attention, with many questioning the political motivations behind such allegations. Kejriwal, who has often been vocal about environmental issues, is expected to present his defense in court. The case could have political ramifications, especially with Delhi's environmental agenda in focus.
