Delhi’s Lieutenant Governor TS Sandhu will inaugurate the ‘Yamuna Dialogues’ on 20 November, a forum aimed at reviving the Yamuna River through coordinated action.
Delhi’s Lieutenant Governor, TS Sandhu, is set to kick off the inaugural session of “Yamuna Dialogues” on 20 November. The event, organized by the Delhi administration, will bring together environmental experts, civic officials and community representatives to discuss actionable measures for cleaning and restoring the Yamuna River.
The dialogue series is intended to serve as a platform for sharing best practices, reviewing ongoing projects and formulating new strategies to improve water quality and flow in the capital’s main waterway. Officials say the initiative aligns with broader national efforts to rejuvenate India’s rivers.
The launch will be held at a government venue in Delhi, with Sandhu delivering opening remarks that underscore the urgency of addressing pollution and encroachment along the Yamuna. Participants are expected to outline short‑term interventions and long‑term policy recommendations.
Stakeholders anticipate that the discussions will lead to concrete action plans, increased funding for river‑bank cleaning, and stronger coordination among municipal bodies, NGOs and the central government.
The “Yamuna Dialogues” will continue as a periodic forum, aiming to monitor progress and adapt strategies as the river’s condition evolves.
