The Supreme Court while hearing Delhi Air Pollution case on Monday said Punjab and Haryana are not doing anything to control stubble burning. The top court asked Punjab Chief Secretary: "How can you treat people like this & let them die. Tell us why stubble burning increased after our order. Why are you not able to check stubble burning? Is it not a failure?"
The top court said that "It will take suo motu cognisance of water pollution issue in national capital to verify whether the drinking water is safe or not for the people and asks Centre and Delhi government to come back with all relevant statistics."
