Not a single word on this... Sometimes they blame UP and Haryana, sometimes they blame Diwali. Diwali has gone, if there is still pollution then why is it?... The question is that in 10 years the Aam Aadmi Party government did not do any work on the internal causes of pollution here, only corruption...
