Taking a surprise move
an elephant drank all water of the
river Yamuna in national capital Delhi, causing
water scarcity in the capital Delhi. The cause of the elephant's step was not known till now but according to an unconfirmed report the elephant belongs to a particular party and when he was denied ticket by the party chief he took this extream step in protest. It is also being said that the
elephant was fully loyal to the party and its party president and he was considered to be close associate of the party chief. He was willing to contest election from a parliamentary constituency in forthcoming parliamentary election and had been preparing for long time for this . But the
elephant's caste proved hurdle for getting him the party ticket. The party denied him ticket on the basis that the population of his caste was not enough in the
constituency to ensure his victory and he was little chance to win the election. After hearing this news that he has been denied the party ticket, he became angry and
drank all water of
river Yamuna. He was also sat on dharna along with other elephants at Ramlila Maidan in Delhi in protest of the party's decision. Heavy forces have been deployed in Ramlila Maidan to
persuade the elephants. Another report suggests that the elephant was in anger after the resignation of Aam Aam Party chief Arvind Kejriwal as a Delhi chief minister. He had voted in Kejriwal's favour in assembly election hoping that Kejriwal would bring a sea change in Delhi administration during his regime and he would not have to give bribe to clerks for their works to be done. But due to untimely resignation of Arvind Kejriwal elephant's aspiration was not fulfilled and he became angry. Humor Satire News reporter narrated different story about the incident, according to him the elephant was well-known environmentalist of Delhi and he was upset over the rising
polution level of Yamuna river so he drank all water of Yamuna to end the pollution. In the mean time, the people of Delhi came out on the street and protested against the
water shortage. They also demanded that water supply be ensured in their homes. The government has taken several steps including 24 hours long meeting of cabinets to ensure the water supply in Delhi. To ensure water supply in Delhi the government has also decided to organise workshops in all pockets of Delhi. The government has also decided to ensure more panel discussions on TV channels. The government has also decided to organise prathna sabh ( prayer) to meet the challenge.
