Saxena tweeted images of the current construction and said, “A brave choice of putting holes in the walls surrounding Rajghat & the Samadhi complex to let water out as per gradient, combined with pumping it out, resulted to it spilling out.

He stated the blaze at the Mahatma Gandhi monument was unabated. The LG provided updates regarding different projects to repair the city’s flood-damaged roadways in a series of tweets. He looked over the work being done to make the Ring Road passable again.

“One side of the road next to Salimgarh Fort has been opened, and work is now being done to repair the other side. In another tweet, he said that starting tomorrow, 25 multifunctional trucks from MCD will begin cleaning and fixing the impacted Ring road.

The LG said that the Army has totally secured the embankment on the mouth of collapsed Regulator 12 near the WHO building, and no water is presently coming back.
