Cleaning the Yamuna - An Agenda for Action

The Yamuna runs for 22 km in Delhi – a mere two per cent of its total length – yet this stretch contributes over 80 per cent of the river’s pollution load. The capital’s new government is seriously exploring every avenue for restoring the river’s health.

Centre for Science and Environment (CSE) has done an in-depth assessment of why the Yamuna continues to run like a “sewage canal” in spite of the thousands of crores spent on cleaning it, and offers a workable action plan to save the river.

We invite journalists based in Delhi-NCR to a CSE Press Briefing on the subject.

WE HAVE LIMITED SEATS AT THE BRIEFING, AND WILL BE ABLE TO ACCOMMODATE ON A FIRST COME-FIRST SERVED BASIS.
