Centre Directs Uttar Pradesh to Accelerate Sewage Projects for Yamuna Cleanup by 2028
The Centre has directed Uttar Pradesh to prepare a time-bound plan to complete sewage treatment and pollution control projects on drains feeding the Yamuna by January 2028, as part of the Yamuna rejuvenation programme. Ghaziabad and Loni are key focus areas due to their significant contribution to pollution entering Delhi's Shahdara drain. While 44 of 91 action points have been completed, progress on preventing pollution from Haryana and Uttar Pradesh into Delhi remains slow. Union home minister Amit Shah and officials regularly review progress with state authorities.
