Leader of the Opposition in the MCD Raja Iqbal Singh squarely blamed the AAP for both issues.
With the water pipes running dry for weeks, Yadav claimed "people of Delhi are left at the mercy of the rain god for their water needs".
Atishi, who is on an indefinite fast demanding water from Haryana, has been accusing the Haryana government of conspiring against the people of the national capital by continuously stopping Delhi's share of water.
They also requested the Delhi LG to accompany them on a joint inspection of the status of water received from Haryana through Munak and Wazirabad barrages.
It is laughable for a Minister to protest and talk about hunger strikes. A minister's job is to work for the convenience of the public.
The AAP chief whip in the Delhi Assembly sought time from the minister to meet him to discuss the matter.
In the letter, he directed the chief secretary to ensure an independent third-party audit of these works is conducted by June 30.
His direction came after Atishi met him in Tihar jail.
The party demanded the formation of a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to probe the matter.
The Delhi Water minister said these teams shall inspect the major pipelines to ensure that there is no leakage in any pipeline and in case of any; it must be repaired within 12 hours.
