It's that time of the year when the air in Delhi begins to feel heavy with pollutants and the toxic waters flowing in the rivers are in public glare due to the approaching Chhath festival.
The Delhi Jal Board (DJB) is on a mission mode to ensure that the annual sighting of the toxic froth on Yamuna is somehow hidden from public glare.
The DJB has launched a drive and is spraying defoaming chemicals to ensure that froth formation doesn't occur when devotees observe Chhath Puja.
Unfortunately, spraying defoaming agents in the river doesn't ensure that the water is bereft of harmful chemicals which are released into the river by industrial units.
