Supplies of drinking water in the Indian capital will fall by a quarter on Thursday and Friday because three treatment plants have been flooded, the city government said, as the Yamuna river overflowed after incessant rain.
Delhi's river is at its highest level in 45 years after unusually heavy downpours in neighbouring states like Haryana, to the north.
"There will be a water problem in some areas of Delhi," the city's chief minister, Arvind Kejriwal, said on Twitter. Kejriwal said the water level in the river could peak later on Thursday and in the meantime, people were being evacuated from flooded areas.
