Union Home Minister and Minister of Cooperation Amit Shah chairs a review meeting in Delhi on the issue of Yamuna rejuvenation
A clean and pristine Yamuna is our resolve under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi; we must fulfil this together soon
The governments of Delhi, Haryana, and Uttar Pradesh, along with the concerned ministries, should work under an integrated action plan with a team spirit rather than in a piecemeal manner; the three states must jointly ensure the standard eco-flow of the Yamuna
An MoU will be signed between the MCD and the NDDB to prevent waste from Delhi’s dairies from flowing into the Yamuna; dung will be transported directly to gas and manure plants, and waste along the Yamuna banks will be managed scientifically
De-silting of Yamuna drains proceeding at a rapid pace; 97% of the targeted 28.57 lakh MT of silt has already been removed, with the remainder to be cleared by June 15
