  • Officials said no evidence of contamination has been found in Delta 1 even as residents previously reported gastrointestinal illnesses.
  • The CEOs directed completion of the 80 cusec Ganga water project by the end of January to expand treated supply across sectors and villages.
  • Greater Noida also deployed eight teams to check water lines and sewer networks for leakages, choked drains and overflows.
  • A two-member team was set up to deliver a 15-day road action plan as the authority moved to modernize sanitation equipment and expedite pond works.
