Delhi News: PM Modi inquires about flood situation in national capital; Yamuna water level starts receding

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday called Delhi LG Vinai Kumar Saxena from France and enquired about the waterlogging and flood situation in the city, and efforts to deal with it. He gave directions for appropriate steps by taking all possible help from the Central government. Meanwhile, the water level of Yamuna river has decreased to 208.63 meters at 10pm on Thursday. Amid the flooding, the city is staring at drinking water shortage as the govt decided to cut down supply by 25 per cent following the closure of three water treatment plants — Wazirabad, Chandrawal and Okhla — due to the rising level of the Yamuna.
