Delhi launched its first recreational cruise service, the Namo Yamuna River Safari, on the Yamuna River on November 10. The service, inaugurated by Union Minister Sarbananda Sonowal and Chief Minister Rekha Gupta, operates between Sonia Vihar and Jagatpur, covering a distance of approximately five kilometers. Each ride lasts around 40 minutes and accommodates up to 30 passengers, with tickets priced at Rs 500. The initiative aims to promote river-based tourism and enhance public engagement with the Yamuna, which has been designated as National Waterway-110. The project is a collaboration between the Inland Waterways Authority of India and the Delhi government, with the aim of developing sustainable water transport and exploring the river's potential for tourism.
