Next time your cousin who has settled in the US says he makes Rs 80 Lac a year, tell him you only need Rs 23 Lac to match his lifestyle in India.

This is how #PurchasingPowerParity (PPP) works.

NGT's directions are finally being implemented.Setting up small STPs in parks, use of treated waste water+closure of bore- wells is happening. DDA and local bodies have issued tenders for a slew of activities. Objective is saving use of over- exploited ground water.@official_dda

Who will believe this is sewage being cleaned through natural filtration? People in Kalindi who smelt only sewage from Kilokiri drain now have 4 large water bodies- clean, natural and an open invite migratory birds!

Huge wall to separate the flood plain from the habitations.Poles demarcating the flood plain up.

A constructed wetland has been built by @official_dda and Prof.Babu( CEMDE) at Batla house area. It will treat 15 -20 MLD raw sewage.

Will be operational in 10-15 days. Massive garbage dump excavated and redesigned as an island /embankment for the wetland.

One can see the Yamuna from the island so created at Batla House/Dhobi ghat.

[Rejuvenation of the River Yamuna @ngtmcyamuna2]

Members of the Yamuna Monitoring Committee of NGT inaugurated constructed wetland system to treat 10- 15 MLD raw sewage discharged from Kilokari drain into Yamuna.
10 more constructed wetland systems would be ready for onsite bio- remediation of nearly 1500 MLD by April 2021.
