Yamuna Recedes, but Delhi Flood Woes Persist; NGO Steps In
The Yamuna River’s water level in Delhi dipped below the 207-meter mark on September 6, 2025, offering some respite to residents. However, the river continues to flow above the danger mark, leaving several areas inundated. Flooding persists, causing widespread disruption.
Numerous families remain displaced, facing immense hardship. Their homes and livelihoods have been severely affected by the relentless deluge.
Responding to this crisis, a local NGO has launched a comprehensive rehabilitation programme. This initiative aims to provide skill development training, job placement assistance, and much-needed support to the affected families.
The NGO’s intervention is crucial in helping these families rebuild their lives. The long-term impact of this flood, however, highlights the urgent need for improved flood management systems and disaster preparedness strategies in the national capital. The government’s response and long-term planning will be crucial in mitigating future crises.
