Delhi Public Works Department plans to revive 21 water bodies in western and outer Delhi. The project aims to control floods and waterlogging. Bhalswa Lake will be the first to undergo restoration. Work includes de-silting, removing pollutants, strengthening embankments, planting trees, and building walking tracks. The water bodies will be linked to drainage systems to collect excess rainwater and recharge groundwater. Parks, nature trails, fishing, and boating activities are also planned. This initiative is a step towards sustainable water management for Delhi. (Updated 2 Oct 2025, 01:48 IST; source: link)
