Fishing In Yamuna River Suspended Due To Excessive Pollution

The Delhi government has prohibited fishing in certain parts of the Yamuna river, citing excessive pollution levels in the river. However, experts believe that soaps and detergents are the major pollutants. Several images of the white toxic foam floating over the river have become viral over social media. Meanwhile, fishing has been restricted at the Hindon Canal, Ghazipur, and Shadipur drain areas including several locations of the river Yamuna.
