Yamuna water level might rise again in old Delhi
After decreasing for two days, the Yamuna water level in Delhi is expected to climb again on Monday night on the Old Delhi river Bridge.
Atishi, a Delhi cabinet minister, has asked residents to remain in rescue camps since “the Central Water Commission estimates that it can reach 206.1 metres overnight.”
On the other hand, she claims that there is no threat to the people of Delhi due to this.
She added that the water level rose somewhat due to heavy rainfall in various districts of Haryana on Sunday.
According to the Central Water Commission, the Yamuna water level was 205.87 metres at 2 p.m., higher than the danger mark of 205.33 metres.
CWC reports on Yamuna Water level:
According to the CWC website, the Yamuna water level would climb to 205.83 metres at 7 p.m. and 206.1 metres at 9 p.m.

The river’s water level in Delhi climbed to 205.80 metres at 12 noon, up from 205.58 metres at 9 a.m. On Sunday night, the water level was 205.52 metres.
