CM Arvind Kejriwal Closes Three Water Treatment Plants In Delhi As Yamuna Causes Chaos

New Delhi: While Delhi is in the midst of flood due to continuous rise of water level of the Yamuna river, Chief Minister of Arvind Kejriwal has confirmed that his government is closing three water treatment plants in the city.

“Due to rising water level in Yamuna, Wazirabad, Chandrawal and Okhla water treatment plants have to be closed. Due to this there will be water problem in some areas of Delhi. As soon as the Yamuna water recedes, we will try to start them as soon as possible,” Delhi CM tweeted.

यमुना में बढ़ते जल स्तर की वजह से वज़ीराबाद, चन्द्रावल और ओखला वॉटर ट्रीटमेंट प्लांट बंद करने पड़ रहे हैं। इस वजह से दिल्ली के कुछ इलाक़ों में पानी की परेशानी होगी। जैसे ही यमुना का पानी कम होगा, इन्हें जल्द से जल्द चालू करने की कोशिश करेंगे।
