Delhi govt to seek control of ITO barrage from Haryana counterpart
Hindustan Times Gurugram
|July 24, 2025
The Delhi government will formally request the Haryana government to hand over control of the ITO barrage on the Yamuna River in an effort to strengthen flood management in the national capital, officials said on Wednesday.
Irrigation and flood control minister Parvesh Verma confirmed the decision, citing last year's flood crisis in which malfunctioning gates at the barrage contributed to the extent of flooding in central Delhi. “The ITO barrage is vital to Delhi's flood control. In 2023, its malfunctioning gates worsened the crisis. While repairs have been made, Delhi needs full control to act swiftly in emergencies. We will formally request the Haryana government to hand it over. Til take up this matter personally to ensure Delhi’s safety is not compromised,” Verma added.
