Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Wednesday called an emergency meeting as the Yamuna reached its highest level so far at 207.55 metres, posing a threat of floods in the city. The meeting will be held at the Delhi Secretariat where senior officers of all departments concerned will be present, said a Delhi government official.
Hundreds of people evacuated from the banks of Yamuna have been living under a flyover in Mayur Vihar in east Delhi. They say they have no food, water or toilets.
