 After steadily rising for the previous four days, the Yamuna River's water level has been constant for the past hour. At 1 and 2 pm on Thursday, Yamuna's water level was 208.62 meters.

When the water levels at Yamuna hit 208.48 meters at 11 p.m. on Wednesday, they broke the 45-year-old record. The authorities had predicted that the water levels would most likely rise.


All schools, colleges, and non-essential government offices must be closed through Sunday, under the Delhi government's directive.


Due to the rise in river levels, the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) has temporarily closed the entry and exit at the Yamuna Bank metro station on the Blue Line. However, the metro organization claimed that the interchange infrastructure is open and that Blue Line services were operating as usual.

Majnu Ka Tila, Mayur Vihar Phase 1, Monastery Market, Geeta Colony, and several sections of the Ring Road close to Kashmere Gate were among the locations flooded as a result of the severe rainfall.

Bus services have been suspended as a result of flooding at the largest bus terminal in the national capital, the Kashmere Gate Bus Terminal.

“Several water treatment plants had to be shut due to a rise in Yamuna's water levels. I inspected the Wazirabad water treatment plant. It will be restarted once the situation is normal”, Kejriwal tweeted.
