The danger of floods has been averted due to the decrease in the water level of the Yamuna in Delhi. But, the silt deposited due to the removal of water has raised a new challenge of cleanliness and the danger of infectious diseases in the affected areas.
It was told that thick silt and mud is still deposited at many places in the affected areas, especially Yamuna Baar, Yamuna Bazaar, Majnu Ka Tila, Monastery Market, and Nigam Bodh Ghat. People are engaged in removing it together, but due to the thick layer of silt, it is becoming difficult to remove.
At the same time, water is filled up to one to two feet at many places. This has increased the possibility of infectious diseases. The silt and mud deposited on the roads and streets is not only affecting the traffic, but also causing accidents due to slippery conditions. Now the people living in relief camps have started returning to their homes.
Shopkeepers have opened shops in Yamuna Bazaar, Monastery Market, and surrounding areas, but mud and silt are deposited everywhere. Local people are facing problems of cleanliness, foul smell, and mosquitoes. The risk of infection and diseases like dengue-malaria has increased due to dirty water filled in houses and streets. There is definitely an atmosphere of relief, but life has not yet become completely normal.
People are returning, but the electricity and water supply have not been restored yet.
Thousands of people from flood affected areas were kept in temporary camps. Now that the water is receding, people have started returning. Relief camps are now getting empty. In such a situation, people who could save their food items in a hurry are taking them from the relief camps to their homes. But starting life again is a challenge because there is a problem in restoring electricity, drinking water, and basic facilities in the houses.
At the same time, after the water receded, a thick layer of mud has accumulated in the affected areas like Ring Road, Civil Lines, Bela Road, Sonia Vihar, and Yamuna Bazaar, which is making cleaning difficult. People are afraid to enter their homes because there is a risk of slippery floors, foul smell, and infection from the mud. Mud is spreading in the relief camps due to a lack of cleanliness. Families living across the Yamuna and near the iron bridge are still forced to live in temporary tents.
Effect on the market and business
The shops of Yamuna Bazaar and Monastery Market have opened, but the footfall is still low. Traders say that there has been a huge loss due to the goods getting wet. There is a crisis in livelihood, and sales are being affected due to a lack of customers.
At the same time, all the shops are still not fully open. Employees of some people have also gone to their respective villages due to the threat of flood, and it will take time for all the shops to become fully operational due to relatives going to their homes.
PWD is busy cleaning the main road
While people are busy cleaning themselves in the submerged area, the PWD on the main road is cleaning the mud that had come on the road with the water of the Yamuna. At the same time, the footpaths, etc., which were damaged, are also being repaired. This problem was particularly severe near the Kashmiri Gate ISBCT, where the PWD workers were busy cleaning.
