New Delhi Apr 19( Agencies)

The Supreme Court today has directed the Chief Secretaries of Haryana and Delhi to appear before it on Monday after the Delhi Jal Board (DJB) said it was not receiving enough water to supply to the national capital.

The apex court was hearing a plea filed by the DJB alleging that Haryana was supplying Delhi only 330 cusecs of water daily as against 450 cusecs, which was agreed upon between the state and the Union Territory. The plea said this has led to a grave water crisis in the national capital.The apex court took a strong note of the apathy shown by authorities in dealing with the water woes of the residents of the national capital.
