In 1909, when the water quality of both the two important rivers of the country, Ganga and Yamuna, was tested, the Yamuna river water was considered as “clear blue”, compared to the water of river Ganga, which was considered silt-laden yellow. A century later, Yamuna river is rated to be the dirtiest and most polluted river of the country, especially around New Delhi, the Capital of India. Rapid industrialisation, urbanisation and population growth have all contributed to the increased level of pollution in the Yamuna river in Delhi, which dumps around 58% of its waste into the river.

\red{\textbf{Yamuna Action Plan :-}}Yamuna Action Plan (YAP) to clean the dirtiest river of the country was formally launched in 1993. The YAP has so far completed two phases as YAP-I and YAP-II. The YAP-I covered Delhi, eight towns in Uttar Pradesh and six towns in Haryana. Under YAP II, emphasis was on the 22-km stretch of Yamuna in Delhi. Now we have YAP-III, phase III of Yamuna Action Plan for Delhi, at an estimated cost of Rs 1,656 crore. In 2013, the YAP-III was initiated and is supposed to be completed by 2015.
