Yamuna Likely to Cross Danger Mark in Delhi After Heavy Rains; Evacuations Begin

In the National Capital Delhi, the water level of the Yamuna River has risen and is expected to have crossed the danger mark this morning due to heavy rainfall in Delhi-NCR. The old railway bridge has been closed for operations, and the evacuation process under the supervision of district magistrates has been initiated in several areas, with people living under the old railway bridge, parts of Mayur Vihar and Yamuna Bazar, among others, being moved. 
 
 
The Delhi government yesterday issued a flood warning for the Capital after the release of over three lakh cusecs of water from Haryana’s Hathnikund barrage between 8 am and 5 pm yesterday due to heavy rainfall in the mountains.
