On July 13, the Delhi Metro authorities had suspended entry to the Yamuna Bank Metro Station after it was rendered inaccessible due to waterlogging.
"Due to the escalating water levels of the Yamuna River, the approach road leading to Yamuna Bank Metro Station is currently inaccessible. Kindly plan your journey accordingly and consider alternate routes. However, interchange facility is available," the DMRC had said in a tweet.
After wreaking havoc on lives and livelihoods in parts of Delhi close to it, the swollen Yamuna followed a downward trend. Meanwhile, the flood situation in Delhi further improved, as the water level in Yamuna at the Old Railway Bridge at 8 pm stood at 205.30 metres, which is below the danger level of 205.33 metres.
