This documentary has been produced to show the extreme disaster in India’s capital New Delhi which is also known as Delhi. Today, Delhi has become a veritable hell for nearly 30 million people who live in the city-state.

In the absence of governance, the people of Delhi are almost buried under rampant corruption, lethal pollution, administrative conflicts, and bureaucratic lethargy. Delhi is governed by three types of rulers including the Lieutenant Governor, chief minister or CM, and the councillors in the Municipal Corporation of Delhi or the MCD.
All of them are treading on each other’s toes and shirking their responsibility towards the citizens. Vinai Kumar Saxena who was handpicked in 2022 to work as the Lieutenant Governor has failed to clean up the mess in Delhi. The MCD is one of the most corrupt outfits full of highly incompetent councillors.
And the chief minister of Delhi Arvind Kejriwal is running one of the most corrupt governments in India. Kejriwal has ostensibly resigned from his CM position because he is allegedly involved in a massive liquor scandal. But he continues to be the proxy CM while a dummy CM has been installed by him.
Today, there is no proper record of the public money that the Delhi Government collects and spends. As an election strategy, Kejriwal squanders huge public money by giving free electricity, water, bus travel, et cetera to Delhi residents.
Instead of empowering people with proper education, Kejriwal is creating a dependent society which can never help a country progress because most people will live only on government dole instead of earning their livelihoods gracefully.
By giving freebies, Kejriwal treats people like beggars. Despite his claims, Kejriwal could not do anything to improve the education standards – particularly in Delhi schools – which are going from bad to worse.
Kejriwal and his colleagues in the Aam Aadmi Party or AAP tell blatant lies about their performance in Delhi schools. But the education quality in these schools is so bad that it cannot equip any student to compete in the contemporary job market.
While Delhi continues to be the most polluted national capital on planet earth, a staggering number of deaths are taking place due to pollution in the city.
The lethal pollution in Delhi is usually compared to the poisonous gas chambers used by Nazi Germany during the Holocaust for the genocide of millions of European Jews.
The Kejriwal government also tells lies about the community health care centers called Mohalla Clinics. While Kejriwal praises his Mohalla Clinics, people in Delhi complain about the uselessness of such a flawed health care concept.
Like most politicians in India, Kejriwal’s group leaders have been allegedly involved in a number of corruption cases and other criminal activities. They have been released from jail on bail by corrupt Indian courts which get influenced by some unscrupulous lawyers who have political affiliations.
Now almost 60 percent of Delhi’s residents are so poor that they cannot pay bribes to the government officials. In recent years, therefore, the corrupt bureaucrats and politicians have systematically created a citywide criminal enterprise across the affluent group housing complexes which have become dangerous centres of crime and corruption.
The cooperative group housing societies, which are supposed to be regulated by the Registrar Cooperative Societies office of Delhi Government, have become hideouts for criminals who masquerade as the management committee members of housing societies.
Kejriwal is splurging huge public money on media advertisements to gain false publicity for himself and his party and also to cover up the criminal cases of his party colleagues. After getting advertisements from Kejriwal, most corrupt media outlets do not question his wrongdoings. The TV anchors particularly do not interject when AAP leaders divert the issues or tell flagrant lies in TV shows to evade crucial questions.
Along with AAP, two other political parties named Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Congress operate in Delhi. However, there is no competent leader in any of these parties who could save the people of Delhi from corruption, pollution, filth, and bureaucratic apathy.
As lawlessness is rampant in India, there is hardly any mechanism to punish the corrupt and careless bureaucrats and politicians. Consequently, the commoners are suffering and they have no other option but to live in the evil realm that Delhi has become.
