Year after Yamuna floods 2023, floodplain residents live in fear

With the onset of monsoon in Delhi, families living on the Yamuna floodplains are worried about a repeat of last year’s flood-like situation in the Yamuna Khadar region, just a kilometre away from the river, as they brace for the potential flooding.

Ramvati (38), who has been living with her family of five in makeshift jhuggis for several years, shared her concerns. “Every year in monsoon, whenever it rains badly, our houses get filled with water. We then spend the whole day evacuating and trying to clear out the water,” she said.
