The Delhi government on Monday banned the sale, storage, transportation, and marketing of soaps and soaps that do not comply with the latest BIS standards for pollution control in the Yamuna River. In January the National Green Tribunal accepted the recommendations of a two-member team that recommended that it be directed to the Delhi government to issue directives "prohibiting the sale, storage and transport and marketing of non-compliant soaps that do not comply with revised BIS standards".

NGT also directed that they launch awareness campaigns on the negative impact of substandard soap use. All relevant authorities, including local bodies, the department of public goods and district administration and other facilities responsible for the sale, storage, transportation and marketing of soap and soap in Delhi must ensure compliance with strict monitoring and inspection, the Delhi Pollution Control Committee said on Monday.

The pollution agency has asked the relevant authorities to submit monthly action taken for the audit reports and subsequent steps taken without fail. Experts cite soaps and soaps as one of the main causes of pollution in the Yamuna River.

Many times, the sight of a poisonous froth floating on the riverbank in Delhi also makes their way to communication. The main reason for the formation of toxic foam of high content of Yamuna in polluted water is due to detergents used in the dye industry, dobi ghats and families, according to a Central Pollution Control Board official.

"A large amount of unused baths are also used in homes and dye industries. Dirty water with high phosphate content reaches the river through untreated canals," he said. These cleaners and other organisms are introduced into the river when the river flows normally.
When water falls at a high level when it reaches barragege, it causes chaos and explosions that cause illness.
