Delhi Master Plan 2047 Proposes Ecological Restoration and Drain Treatment for Yamuna
Delhi's Master Plan 2047 outlines comprehensive ecological restoration of the Yamuna River and its floodplains, focusing on a 22-kilometre stretch between Wazirabad and Okhla barrages. The plan includes treating 22 drains discharging into the river through sewage treatment and bioremediation, restoring wetlands and natural depressions, and creating green buffers with riverine species. It proposes a 200-kilometre Ridge-Yamuna Park Connector and public greenways with cycling and walking trails, aiming to enhance biodiversity, groundwater recharge, and climate resilience while prohibiting untreated waste discharge into water bodies.
