Mahatma Gandhi’s memorial at Rajghat has been freed of waterlogging, a week after waters from the Yamuna river inundated the complex. Officials said on Friday that Delhi Lt Governor VK Saxena, who was supervising the operation to drain flood water from the lawns and pathways of the memorial, visited Rajghat and took stock of the situation. “Water from the main area of the memorial was completely pumped out, and it is dried and cleaned now. Senior officers of the Delhi government, including the chief secretary, were constantly monitoring the work on the L-G’s instructions,” an official said.
