Supreme Court Slams Delhi Government Over Water Crisis in Slums

The Supreme Court of India sharply criticized the Delhi government for prioritizing cycle tracks while neglecting the basic need for clean water in slum areas. During a hearing on Monday, the court expressed dismay at the stark contrast between infrastructure projects and the dire living conditions of slum dwellers. "People in slums lack clean water, and you're daydreaming about cycle tracks?" the bench remarked, highlighting the urgent need to address water scarcity and sanitation issues in underprivileged communities. The court urged immediate action to ensure equitable access to clean water for all residents of the national capital.
