Question

Pls A speech on Save Yamuna River in Delhi

Answer 1

Answer:

The Yamuna, another sacred river of the Hin­dus, is an important tributary of the Ganga. The river rises from the Yamunotri glacier (6,387m above msl) at the Banderpoonch peak in the Uttarkashi district of Uttaranchal. The river flows 1,367 km from its source to its confluence with the Ganga at Allahabad.

At the Tajewala barrage, 172 km from its source, the Western and the Eastern Yamuna Canals divert the entire river water into Haryana and Uttar Pradesh for irrigation and other uses. Precipitation in the catchment area of the river is restricted to three monsoon months of July, August and September. Consequently, the river flow is not uniform throughout the year and the level of pollution increases during dry period.

Hope it helps you. .
