The Centre has drafted a "Yamuna Master Plan" to clean the river in Delhi, which will be submitted to PM Modi for approval. The plan follows a commitment made by the BJP during Delhi elections. The Jal Shakti Ministry consulted experts who previously worked on the Sabarmati river front for its formulation. The clean-up plan includes waste removal, cleaning major drains, monitoring sewage plants, and expanding treatment infrastructure. The issue has become a political flashpoint between the BJP and AAP, with allegations exchanged regarding pollution from Haryana. The Supreme Court also noted potential improvements in implementation due to changed circumstances in Delhi.
