Hours after a blast near PVR Prashant Vihar in Rohini, Delhi Chief Minister Atishi accused the BJP-led central government of failing to maintain law and order in the national capital.In a press conference, CM Atishi condemned the blast, which she said was the second such incident in the last two months in the same locality. She claimed the situation indicated a larger breakdown in law enforcement and safety measures.

“This is a breakdown of law and order in the national capital,” Atishi said, referring to the similar blast near a CRPF school in the same area earlier this year. She also pointed fingers at Union Home Minister Amit Shah, accusing him of neglecting the safety of Delhiites.“The BJP and Home Minister Amit Shah are responsible for this situation. They are failing in their only responsibility in the capital,” she added, mentioning reports of extortion calls being made from areas near the home minister's residence.

Earlier, addressing a press conference on law and order, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convener and former chief minister Arvind Kejriwal lashed out at the BJP over the deteriorating law and order situation in Delhi.  Kejriwal raised questions aimed at Union home minister Amit Shah.

“What’s happening in Delhi? Would he agree that he is unable to manage Delhi? Who should the people of Delhi turn to for security? Do women feel safe in Delhi?” Kejriwal said. Kejriwal’s comments came amid growing concerns over safety, especially for women in the national capital. He cited reports of extortion threats, shootings, and rising public crimes, claiming that these had become an unfortunate norm under BJP’s rule.

According to Kejriwal, the atmosphere in Delhi is one of fear and insecurity.

Women feel unsafe stepping out after 7pm, and parents are increasingly worried about their daughters going to college," he said.

Kejriwal further expressed his frustration at the lack of action from the central government, particularly in addressing crimes and providing a sense of safety to residents.

His remarks come just months before the Delhi assembly elections, where AAP and BJP are already at odds over issues of governance and law enforcement.
