Yamuna crosses danger mark in Delhi
June 19, 2013
The water level of the river Yamuna crossed the danger mark of 204.83 metres and reached 206.40 metres today in Delhi. The Flood Control and Irrigation department
said the water level would touch 207.05 meters later on Wednesday.
Aseem, a resident said, "The water level is expected to rise. We will
have to move our shop from this place, if the water level rises. My tea shop is
already half submerged, I don't know what I will do."
The rains have been at least twice than heavy as usual in northwest and
central India as the June-September monsoon spreads north, covering the
whole country a month faster than normal.
