‘The government worked on the war to clean Yamuna in 2025’

New Delhi: The Chairman of the Minister of Delhi Arvind Kejriwal on Thursday said his government was working on a war footing on a six-point action plan to clean Yamuna in February 2025.
The ministerial head said he would provide a 2019 polling assembly to clean the stretch of the Delhi River.
“It takes 70 years of Yamuna to be so polluted.
The damage made in 70 years cannot be canceled in just two days.
I have made a promise that I will clear Yamuna (in Delhi) with the next assembly poll and will take a.
Dip in it With all of you, “he said at a press conference.
“We are working on war foothills to clean Yamuna.
There are six special action points to achieve this and I personally monitor progress,” said the AAM AADMI Party leader (AAP).
He said the government was building a new waste treatment plant (STP) and increased the existing capacity and improve it.
“This will increase our waste processing capacity of around 600 million gallons of wastewater a day to 750-800 mgd,” Kejriwal said.
He said the wastewater of four major drains fell on Yamuna – Najafgarh, Badshahpur, additions and Ghazipur – was being treated there.
The city government will turn off the industry that issues industrial waste into Yamuna, said Minister of Chief.
Waste water in the “Jhuggi Jhopri” group flows through storm water flowing into Yamuna.
This cluster will be connected to a gutter network, said Kejriwal.
The AAP government will provide household connections in areas that have sewer networks.
Previously, consumers had to get the connection itself.
The city government has also begun to eliminate and rehabilitate the network of sewer.
“Our engineers and officers hope that we will be able to clean Yamuna in February 2025 with the implementation of a six-point action plan.
Specific targets have been set for each point of action and I will personally monitor progress,” Kejriwal said.
.
Delhi produces around 720 million gallons of wastewater a day.
35 STP in 20 locations throughout the city can take care of up to 597 MGD Sewage and have used around 90 percent of their capacity.
Pictures and videos show worshipers who offer prayers in Yamuna on the chance of Chhath Puja with foam floating on the river surface has triggered the slugfest politics between the powerful AAP and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in Delhi.
A 22 kilometer stretch of Yamuna between Wazirabad and Okhla, which is less than two percent of the length of the river of 1,370 kilometers from Yamunotri to Allahabad, accounts for around 80 percent of the pollution load in it.
According to experts, the main reason behind the formation of foam in Yamuna is a high phosphate content in detergent used in the coloring industry, Dhobi Ghats and households in Delhi, Haryana and Uttar Pradesh.
Bad quality waste is removed from the General Waste Processing plant (CETPS) and STPS are other reasons.
Water waste from official colonies and settlements containing high phosphate content reaches rivers through untapped channels.
When water falls from a height with a series, the turbulence drown phosphorus compounds on the river, which leads to the formation of foam.
Exercise in a stretch of certain rivers, as near Ito and Okhla Barrage, has become an annual phenomenon now in winter, when low temperatures and flow in the river are less.
