Delhi Jal Board to start drive to seal illegal borewells
The Delhi Jal Board (DJB) will seal illegally operating borewells in the city, constituting 16 teams to check such operations across the city. The drive is in response to an ongoing National Green Tribunal (NGT) case regarding the illegal extraction of groundwater. The extraction of groundwater without prior permission is considered illegal under Delhi Pollution Control Committee (DPCC) regulations. The penalty for violators depends on various factors including the capacity of the pump, its diameter, and the purpose for extraction of groundwater. A report by the Central Groundwater Board (CGWB) found that 41.49% of Delhi's area is considered "over-exploited" due to high levels of groundwater extraction.
