At the point where the Yamuna enters Delhi from Haryana, the river has narrowed into a shallow brown stream with large patches of exposed sand and dry riverbed. In North Delhi’s Palla village, people are now crossing the river on foot from Delhi and Haryana into Uttar Pradesh, something locals say has become common during summer months, a TOI report stated.
Children were seen wading through knee-deep water using a narrow channel to move between villages, while bullock carts loaded with farm produce travelled across the dried-up river path connecting Palla and Haryana’s Dahisara village with UP’s Sankroud.
