Water Levels In Yamuna At 56-year Low, Says Chadha
Millennium Post Delhi|July 13, 2021
Delhi Jal Board (DJB) Vice-Chairman Raghav Chadha on Monday said the water levels of the Yamuna river at the Wazirabad barrage have hit the lowest point in 56 years as Haryana has withheld Delhi’s legitimate share of water, even as Haryana Minister Anil Vij denied this and insisted that the AAP was “lying”.
Water Levels In Yamuna At 56-year Low, Says Chadha

Chadha, who reviewed the situation at the Wazirabad pond, said Haryana has not been releasing at least 120 MGD (million gallons per day) water that belongs to Delhi and this has led to a water crisis in the national capital.

“The water treatment plants in Delhi are operating at a reduced capacity because of a less discharge of raw water from Haryana.

“With Haryana withholding Delhi’s share of water, the Yamuna has dried up...so much that it can be used as a cricket or a hockey field. The water levels at the Wazirabad barrage have not been so low since 1965,” Chadha said.
