Interference in Yamuna revival is unjustified

Hindustan Times Delhi

|

March 04, 2025

Yamuna in Delhi has surpassed the threshold of pollution, and any interference in its rejuvenation efforts under the guise of humanitarian or sympathetic consideration is unjustified, the Delhi high court has held, while upholding the Delhi Development Authority (DDA)'s action of uprooting plant nurseries located on the Yamuna floodplains.

NEW DELHI:

"The present condition of the Yamuna has surpassed the threshold where any further interference in its rejuvenation and restoration efforts—whether under the guise of humanitarian or sympathetic considerations— cannot be justified. Any such intervention would only serve to hinder and delay the timely execution of the public projects referred to hereinbefore," a bench of justice Dharmesh Sharma said in a ruling delivered on Friday.
