Toxic Foam Covers Yamuna River in Kalindi Kunj as Pollution Levels Remain Critical

Toxic foam was once again spotted floating on the surface of the Yamuna River in the Kalindi Kunj area, highlighting the continuing pollution crisis plaguing the river. The frothy layer, a result of untreated industrial waste, detergents, and sewage mixing in the river, poses serious health and environmental risks. Despite several efforts by the government and environmental agencies, the pollution levels in the Yamuna remain dangerously high, threatening both aquatic life and communities that rely on the river for daily water needs.Residents of nearby areas have expressed concerns over the toxic foam, citing health hazards such as respiratory issues and skin infections. Environmentalists warn that the recurring foam is a sign of deep-rooted pollution, aggravated by inadequate sewage treatment and industrial discharge. Authorities have been urged to take immediate action to improve water treatment facilities and enforce stricter pollution control measures to restore the health of the Yamuna, which remains one of the most polluted rivers in India.
