Delhi Plans Sabarmati-Style Yamuna Riverfront with Sewage Treatment Upgrades
Delhi plans a Sabarmati-style riverfront development along a 52-km stretch of the Yamuna from Palla to Kalindi Kunj, divided into two phases. The project includes walking and cycling tracks, sports grounds, and recreational spaces, aiming to create accessible public areas. The government is preparing a memorandum of understanding with the Sabarmati Riverfront Development Corporation and hiring consultants. Alongside, significant investments are being made to expand sewage treatment capacity to improve the river's water quality, with completion targeted during the current government's term.
