The Delhi government deployed workers to sprinkle water into the Yamuna river to disperse the toxic foam, and barricades were put up to prevent the froth from floating towards the ghats. 

The Delhi government on Wednesday morning deployed workers to sprinkle water into the Yamuna river to disperse the toxic foam. They were also seen placing bamboo barricades to prevent the froth from floating towards the ghats of the national capital. Speaking to India Today, environmentalist Vimlendu Jha said, “They are trying to visibly block the froth from basically your eyesight, but the pollutants remain in the river. High levels of ammonia, this is sewage flowing in the river and such techniques don’t safeguard pollution”. #WATCH | "We are sprinkling water in the Yamuna to dissipate toxic foam," says Ashok Kumar, Delhi Jal Board employee pic.twitter.com/4waL2VsM7T #WATCH | Barricades being placed in the Yamuna to stop toxic foam from floating towards the ghat.
