Delhi's Water Woes: Residents Worried as Ammonia Levels Spike in Yamuna River

New Delhi : The recent announcement by the Delhi Jal Board stating the water shortage in various parts of the national capital till November 1 has raised concerns among the residents. The primary reason for this shortage is the high level of ammonia in the Yamuna river, which is the main source of water for these areas.

The contamination of the river has made the water unfit for consumption and has affected several regions in east, northeast, and south Delhi, as well as those under the New Delhi Municipal Council. This situation highlights the critical need for effective measures to be taken to address the pollution of our water bodies and ensure a steady supply of clean water for the growing population of Delhi. It is essential for authorities to work towards finding a long-term solution to this issue to prevent future water crises in the city.
