Dengue and Chikungunya in Delhi: CM Kejriwal urges people to fight against mosquitoes
Arvind Kejriwal on Sunday asked people in the capital to jointly declare a war on mosquitoes.

He said every second day there should be fogging in every street and every locality in the capital to get rid of the mosquitoes.Mosquitoes, he underlined, ‘do not differentiate between the Congress and BJP people’.The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader said everyone should join the campaign against mosquitoes like during ‘the India-Pakistan cricket match when all Indians unite’.He said there was enough facility in the Delhi government hospitals to tackle dengue and chikungunya but the problem of mosquitoes remained.‘It will not be good if we continue to blame civic bodies which did not do their duty. Now every Delhiite should do it. Civic bodies, the Delhi government and the central government, all should do it jointly,’ Kejriwal said.Delhi has so far witnessed 32 deaths due to vector-borne diseases.
