In this Special Report, India Today’s Sonal Mehrotra Kapoor debates the escalating pollution crisis in Delhi with BJP spokesperson Neoma Gupta, Congress spokesperson Dr. Onika Mehrotra, and AAP spokesperson Siddharth Sharma. The discussion follows an incident where the Delhi Chief Minister was booed with ‘AQI, AQI’ chants at an international event. Neoma Gupta defends the BJP government’s ‘data-driven decisions’ and ‘tough measures’ like banning construction. However, AAP’s Siddharth Sharma criticizes the lack of electric buses in BJP-ruled areas, while Dr. Mehrotra questions the government’s preparedness, stating, ‘It couldn't have been more disgraceful of a sitting Chief Minister to be booed.’ The panel clashes over the lack of a centralized action plan and the ongoing blame game.
