Dead fish in Yamuna, police files FIR following complaint by I&FC Dept

New Delhi, Nov 14 (UNI) Delhi Police have filed an FIR against unidentified persons with regard to the dead fish found in the Yamuna river near Sonia Vihar.
The case was registered against unidentified persons after a complaint was filed by the Irrigation and Flood Control department.
According to a senior police officer, investigation has been initiated to establish facts in connection to the matter.
This comes two days after videos had gone viral on social media showing dead fish floating in the river in the stretch along Sonia Vihar, however, the exact cause of the death of these fish was not known.
Meanwhile, Delhi Ministers Parvesh Verma and Manjinder Sirsa have alleged that the dead fish had been deliberately dumped into Yamuna waters to defame the government, after it had launched the cruise service in that part of the river, and efforts have been accelerated towards cleaning the river.
Sirsa on Friday accused leaders of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) of allegedly dumping dead fish into the Yamuna to discredit the BJP government’s river-cleaning efforts, describing the act as a “great sin” ahead of Chhath Puja.
In a video message on social media platform X, the minister alleged that the opposition party was resorting to political tactics after looking at the developments like the cruise service in the river.
Sirsa said that such type of fish have never been seen in Yamuna, and wondered as to how such a large number of the kind of fish was found floating dead in the river. UNI AP SS
