This plant has started production of 54 MGD. Equipment in this plant has suffered maximum damage. It is expected that it will soon start working at full capacity.
Along with this, Kejriwal said that engineers are working round-the-clock to repair this plant. The Chief Minister also thanked the Public Works Department, Delhi Jal Board, and other agencies for the rescue and relief work in the flood-affected areas.
In a tweet, Kejriwal said, "I would like to personally thank all officers and engineers of PWD, DJB, Army, NDRF, I&FC, Navy and other departments for working 24x7 to save Delhiites and bring life back to normal." I want to thank you very much. Hats off to all of them! Thank you."
Along with this, on Sunday, he announced ten thousand rupees per family as financial help for the flood-affected families.
At the same time, Chandrawal Water Treatment Plant (WTP) resumed operations after the water level fell to 206.03 meters on Sunday. Three water treatment plants—Wazirabad, Okhla, and Chandrawal—were shut down on 13 July after floodwaters entered the pumping stations of these plants.

Okhla water treatment plant started functioning at full capacity on Saturday evening. The Yamuna's water level on Monday morning reached 205.48 meters, slightly above the danger mark of 205.33 meters, while water-logging continued in several parts of the national capital.
