| Delhi BJP chief admitted to hospital days after taking dip in 'toxic' Yamuna | | | Agencies
New Delhi, Oct 26: Delhi BJP chief Virendra Sachdeva was admitted to the RML Nursing Home on Saturday with complaints of itching and breathing difficulties, two days after he took a dip in the heavily-polluted Yamuna to highlight the alleged failure of the AAP government to clean the river.
On Thursday, Sachdeva took a dip in the Yamuna at the Chhath Ghat and slammed former Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal for his "failure" to fulfil his promise to clean the river by 2025.
After taking the dip, Sachdeva faced skin rashes and slight discomfort in breathing for which he was examined at the RML Hospital where the doctors prescribed him medicines for three days. However, on Saturday morning, the BJP leader was admitted to the RML Nursing Home after he complained of itching and breathlessness. He doesn't have any past history of similar problems, Delhi BJP media cell said in a statement. Wishing Sachdeva a speedy recovery, senior AAP leader and Delhi Environment Minister Gopal Rai said that BJP leaders should now realise that their "theatrics" will not clean the river.
On Thursday, Sachdeva "apologised" to Yamuna for the AAP government's "failure" in cleaning its water, promising to form a separate authority for its rejuvenation if the BJP wins the Assembly elections scheduled in Delhi next year. |
