Three weeks after Yamuna fest, clean-up far from over

April 03, 2016 13:10

Three weeks after the World Culture Festival event was held on the Yamuna floodplain, the clean up work at the venue is in progress and will take more time to complete.

Labourers at the site said it would take another month to dismantle the seven-acre stage."Three groups of workers belonging to different contractors are dismantling the stage. It is a labour-intensive job and will take time,' said Raju (name changed on request).

Giant cranes, trucks and nearly 100 men were seen in action. A few security guards were also deployed at various corners of the site. "Apart from the stage, all other structures have been dismantled,' said one of the guards.
