New Delhi, June 14 (IBNS): Congress leaders Arvinder Singh Lovely, Sajjan Kumar and Mukesh Sharma were arrested by the Delhi police at the Nangloi railway station here on Saturday for protesting against the water and power crisis in the national capital.

The Congress leaders were accompanied by several protesters who tried to storm into the railway station.

They were stopped by the police, who also used water canons.

The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) also protested outside Union Health Minister Harsh Vardhan's house over the power crisis on Tuesday.

With Delhi reeling under severe blackouts, Union Power Minister Piyush Goyal announced that the capital will get 400 megawatts of power by Tuesday night.
