CM inspects his house to contain dengue

Monday, 28 September 2020 | Staff Reporter | NEW DELHI

Marking the fourth week of the '10 Hafte 10 Baje 10 Minute Har Ravivaar Dengue Par Vaar' campaign of the Delhi government, Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Sunday inspected his house for stagnant clean water at 10 AM for 10 minutes, draining and replacing accumulated water at various spots in his home and surroundings.

The chief minister has appealed to all RWAs of Delhi to come forward and make the residents in their localities aware of the measures to be taken to prevent dengue. He appealed to the RWAs to talk to people in their respective colonies and increase participation by motivating them to join hands in preventing dengue.

Kejriwal said, "I appeal to all the RWAs to talk to people in their societies as well and motivate them to join this campaign, we have to defeat dengue together."

Taking to social media, Kejriwal tweeted, "Taking forward the campaign against dengue today on the fourth Sunday by replacing the water collected at home. In this way, we have to stop the breeding of dengue mosquitoes and protect our family and the entire Delhi from Dengue. #10Hafte10Baje10Minute Har Ravivaar Dengue Par Vaar."

Kejriwal sought the support of the RWAs in preventing Dengue last year as well. He had introduced a 5-point plan for the RWAs to take measures to prevent the breeding of dengue mosquitoes in their areas.

Reiterating his appeal this year, CM Shri Arvind Kejriwal also said that the participation from people from all walks of life and all organizations such as senior members of RWAs, etc, is necessary to prevent dengue.

This year, the Delhi government has also launched a telephonic helpline - 01123300012 and WhatsApp helpline - 8595920530 to assist the general public for Dengue.
