Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Wednesday accused Delhi`s neighbouring states for their failure in providing an alternate option of stubble burning to their farmers which leads to major pollution across Northern India. Kejriwal said that the bio-decomposing process of converting stubble into manure is a success, which shows that Delhi has provided a cheap and effective alternative for stubble burning to other states. Kejriwal said that the neighbouring states, where the practice of stubble burning is prevalent, should implement the alternative without any excuses. The media reports and satellite images show that the practice of stubble burning is quite prevalent in the neighbouring states of Delhi, especially Punjab," Kejriwal said, while addressing the media. We would present this alternative in front of the Supreme Court owing to the effectiveness of this alternative," Kejriwal said.
