Delhi residents are closely monitoring the rising water levels of the Yamuna River, which began surging once more on Monday. According to the Central Water Commission, the increase in water levels can be attributed to local factors, particularly recent rainfall in the plains.

As the situation unfolds, residents remain vigilant and prepared for potential consequences caused by the rising river.
