AMMONIA

High ammonia levels in the Yamuna River have led to a 25-50% reduction in operations at Delhi's Wazirabad and Chandrawal water treatment plants, disrupting water supply in several areas, including Defence Colony and NDMC. The ammonia concentration exceeded 3 ppm, prompting the Delhi Jal Board to divert water from the Munak canal to dilute the polluted water. The situation arises from ongoing industrial pollution disputes between Delhi and Haryana, leaving residents reliant on water cans for drinking.
