NEW DELHI: On Friday, thick white froth was seen covering parts of the Yamuna River in Delhi, especially around the Kalindi Kunj area, raising alarm among local residents and environmental experts. The foam, which appeared like clouds floating on the river's surface, sparked health concerns, with residents and experts pointing to the rising pollution levels in the already contaminated river.
Residents living along the riverbank have voiced their growing worries about the deteriorating state of the Yamuna. “We can barely step outside our homes as we get deep in winter. It becomes unbearable,” said Pooja. “We've been seeing this foam for years, but it feels worse now. The pollution is so bad, but we still use the water.”
