dc.description.abstractThe River Yamuna originates from the Yamunotri in the Himalayas. It finally merges with the Ganga and Underground Saraswati at Prayag in Allahabad. Enroute it runs for approximately 22 Km along Delhi. This river quenches the thirst of almost 60% population of Delhi and in return it is cursed to become a practically dead river, which can resemble more than drain than to river. In lower reaches its water is good for nothing. This is alarming situation towards the environment degradation as mentioned above. The objective of this project is to study the quality of River Yamuna, to identify the sources of pollution of River Yamuna and to suggest preventive measures for prevention of pollution in River Yamuna. The most alarming finding of the study is the total lack of dissolved oxygen in the entire reach (from wazirabad barrage to Okhla barrage), biochemical oxygen demand is more than limits at all the locations and unbelievably high coli forms count.en_US
