Delhi floods: The flood water from Yamuna has seriously affected the normal life of people in the national capital.
The houses, key roads, tourist spots, markets and others waterlogged.
The flood-like situation has thus forced the Delhi government to shut down schools, colleges, crematoriums, and even water treatment plants.
On Thursday late at night, Yamuna flood water reached close to the Supreme Court. Tilak Marg area near the Supreme Court was flooded.
Delhi Cabinet Minister Saurabh Bharadwaj said the government has directed the chief secretary to take up the matter of the damage to the regulator on priority and resolve the problem.
“Whole night, our teams worked to fix the damage at regulator of drain no. 12 near WHO (World Health Organization) building.
Still, the water of Yamuna is entering the city through this breach.
The government has directed the chief secretary to take it up on highest priority,” he said in a tweet.
Several posh areas, including the secretariat which houses the offices of the chief minister as well as his cabinet colleagues, flooded on Thursday.
On Friday morning visuals showed Rajghat submerged in water. Waterlogging also reported in ITO, near Kashmere Gate and other prominent roads. Thus, to the overflowing Yamuna, people are facing problems.
