'You Too Should Try': Kejriwal Slams Rekha Gupta's Vipassana Jibe Amid Pollution Row

  • Arvind Kejriwal slammed Delhi CM Rekha Gupta for mocking Vipassana meditation amidst the air pollution row.
  • Kejriwal stated that ridiculing the spiritual practice, taught by Lord Buddha, was "unbecoming" of a chief minister.
  • Gupta had previously accused Kejriwal of "running away" to practice Vipassana instead of addressing Delhi's pollution.
  • Kejriwal urged Gupta to try Vipassana herself, emphasizing its spiritual significance and peace-giving benefits.
  • The exchange occurred as Delhi's air quality index (AQI) reached a 'severe' category of 461, the highest of the season.

Why It Matters: Political leaders' spat over Vipassana highlights inaction on Delhi's severe pollution.
