Delhi: 24 Groundwater Samples Exceed Uranium Limits

The National Green Tribunal (NGT) has taken note of the high levels of uranium in Delhi's groundwater. The tribunal's decision comes after it was found that 24 out of the sampled groundwater sources in the city exceeded the standard limits for uranium. This development has raised concerns about the potential health impacts on the city's residents. The NGT has widened the scope of the hearing to address this critical issue. The presence of high levels of uranium in groundwater can have severe health consequences, including kidney damage and cancer. The NGT's decision to expand the hearing is expected to lead to a more comprehensive investigation into the matter.
