Taking to X, she said, I will start an indefinite fast at Bhogal, Jangpura from 12 o’clock. I will remain on fast until the people of Delhi get their rightful share of water from Haryana.’
Before the fast, Atishi with Arvind Kejriwal’s wife Sunita and with another AAP leader Sanjay Singh also honored Mahatma Gandhi at Rajghat.

Talking to the media, she announced, that around 28 lakh people are dealing with water shortage and accused neighboring state Haryana for not releasing the needed water.
‘Yesterday, Haryana released 513 MGD (million gallons per day) of water to Delhi as against 613 MGD. One MGD of water is for 28,500 people. This means that water was not released for over 28 lakh people’ said Atishi.
