September 20, 2025
|The Morning Standard
UNION Minister Manohar Lal Khattar on Friday launched Delhi's new drainage master plan to address the city's waterlogging and sewage challenges in the next three decades.
The plan seeks to reshape the city's drainage network at an estimated cost of ₹57,000 crore, with the Centre pledging financial assistance to support its rollout.
The plan has divided the city into three basins-Najafgarh, Barapullah and Trans-Yamuna-and hired consultants to redesign the drainage network.
"The Central government will be helping the state to implement the drainage master plan," said Khattar.
