Palla village has Delhi's cleanest Yamuna River stretch

Palla village, located at the junction of Delhi, Haryana, and Uttar Pradesh, features the cleanest stretch of the Yamuna River in Delhi. Unlike the polluted waters downstream, Palla's river supports agriculture and wildlife, with farmers cultivating organic strawberries and flowers. Recent reports confirm that the water quality in Palla meets safety standards, with low pollution levels. However, pollution spikes from nearby drains threaten this purity, leading to political disputes over water quality between Delhi and Haryana. Despite its current health, Palla faces challenges from agricultural runoff and sewage. Activists suggest that addressing pollution from Haryana's drains could help maintain the river's cleanliness as it enters Delhi.
