Yamuna Pollution Causes Water Supply Disruption in Lutyens' Delhi
A sudden increase in ammonia pollution in the Yamuna River forced the Sonia Vihar Water Treatment Plant in Delhi to reduce production, disrupting water supply in several Lutyens' Delhi areas including Khan Market, Lodhi Estate, and the President's Estate. The Delhi Jal Board reported ammonia levels briefly exceeded 1 ppm but are now under control. The New Delhi Municipal Council advised residents to contact control rooms for water tanker services and updates on booster pump operations.
