New Delhi, Even as monsoon rains increased water inflows at the Hathnikund Barrage (HKB) on the Yamuna over the past fortnight, the amount of water released into the river remained largely unchanged for several days, raising concerns among experts over the ecological health of the river downstream in Delhi.
According to a report by the South Asia Network on Dams, Rivers and People (SANDRP), an analysis of the Central Water Commission's (CWC) data on hourly discharge from the Hathnikund Barrage showed that inflows into the barrage increased steadily after the onset of the monsoon.
