The Yamuna river exceeded the danger level of 204.83 meters due to heavy rainfall in northern India. Haryana released 7.5 lakhs cusec of water into the Yamuna river, the highest single-day discharge in over 100 years, causing the water level to rise further. Settlements along the banks of the Yamuna were washed away and a railway bridge over the river had to be closed due to the high water levels, disrupting train services.
