|July 21, 2025
CURRENT CAPACITY OF 100MGD WATER WILL INCREASE TO 200-250MGD AFTER DREDGING SILT UP TO 2.15 METRES, OFFICIALS SAID
The Delhi government plans to double the water storage capacity of the Wazirabad barrage in north Delhi by dredging the Yamuna riverbed after monsoon, government officials said on Sunday.
Delhi water minister Parvesh Verma said fresh silt and mud in the river from heavy rains upstream would have complicated the project during the monsoon. The government will likely earn ₹27 crore revenue from the excavated material, he said. “The previous government used to pay money to contractors for dredging but we will earn revenue from the exercise. We will dredge the river after the monsoon,” Verma said.
