Relief camp
The Delhi administration set up relief camps showing speed. People were given temporary shelter by putting tents near Delhi-Meerut Expressway, Mori Gate and Mayur Vihar.

Old Railway Bridge, which is considered an important center for monitoring the flow of Yamuna and water level, remained closed for several days. The movement was stopped from here when the water level went above the danger mark. Now after the water is reduced, it is expected that the situation will start becoming normal.

The same, the administration is still on alert and is ready to deal with any situation.
