With an alarming surge in dengue cases reported in the aftermath of recent floods, Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, called for a meeting at the Delhi Secretariat today at noon.

The meeting aims to devise a comprehensive strategy to combat the escalating dengue cases that have gripped the city in recent weeks.

Health Minister Saurabh Bhardwaj, Mayor Shelly Oberoi, and officials from concerned departments will be in attendance to address the pressing situation.

As monsoon rains continue to batter the region, the incidence of dengue and malaria has spiked, affecting the health and well-being of several residents.

Over the last two weeks, Delhi has witnessed 51 cases of dengue alone, raising serious concerns among health authorities.

The devastating floods could have exacerbated the situation by creating conducive breeding grounds for disease-carrying mosquitoes.

Stagnant water and unhygienic conditions are considered the ideal environment for the mosquito population to thrive and multiply.
