Delhi LG orders urgent cleaning of clogged INA drain, containing 50,000 tonnes waste, after years of neglect.

Delhi Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena has ordered the urgent cleaning and desilting of the INA drain, clogged with over 50,000 tonnes of waste and debris. This drain, which feeds into the Kushak drain and the Yamuna River, has not been maintained for several years, leading to waterlogging in nearby areas. Cleanup efforts began with heavy machinery, removing over a thousand tonnes of debris on the first day. Saxena also called for a fence and permanent access ramp to prevent future dumping.
