Chhath: Devotees forced to take dip in toxic waters of Yamuna in Delhi

Devotees took a dip in the Yamuna river that had a thick layer of toxic foam near Kalindi Kunj on the first day of Chhath Puja on Monday. The people expressed their disappointment with the quality of water in the river. Bharatiya Janata Party MP Manoj Tiwari on Monday rode a boat in toxic foam-covered Yamuna in the national capital. The capital's water supply has also remained affected since Saturday evening due to a rise in ammonia levels in the Yamuna. "The Delhi government is not bothered about this development. Delhi government bans people from coming to ghats but makes false claims of cleaning it. The Supreme Court should take a suo -motu cognisance on this matter", Tiwari said.
