26 October, 2024;Delhi BJP President Virendra Sachdeva has been admitted to Ram Manohar Lohia (RML) Hospital after his health deteriorated this morning. According to reports, Sachdeva is experiencing a skin infection, severe itching, and breathing difficulties. His condition worsened after a recent, highly publicized protest.
On Thursday, in a demonstration against the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government, Sachdeva took a dip in the Yamuna River at ITO Ghat, bringing attention to the ongoing issue of pollution in the river. This act was meant to emphasize concerns over the water quality and call out the AAP administration’s handling of the river’s pollution. He invited Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and Atishi, a senior AAP leader and Minister, to join him in the river as a symbolic gesture.
Sachdeva’s bold protest was intended to challenge the AAP government’s claims regarding their efforts in cleaning up the Yamuna. However, his exposure to the water appears to have resulted in a skin infection and related health issues, prompting his hospitalization. Party members and supporters are closely monitoring his health, with BJP officials stating they remain committed to addressing environmental and civic issues in the capital.
The incident has sparked further debate over the condition of the Yamuna, with citizens and political opponents questioning the efficacy of current pollution control measures. This episode underscores the broader, ongoing discussion about environmental responsibility and the importance of maintaining public health standards in Delhi.
