On which stretch of the Yamuna has Delhi's first recreational river cruise service been developed?
- A.Wazirabad to Okhla
- B.Sonia Vihar to Jagatpur
- C.Kalindi Kunj to Nizamuddin
- D.Palla to Wazirabad
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is Sonia Vihar to Jagatpur. The cruise service has been developed along this stretch of the river, and the inauguration itself was fixed at Sonia Vihar on 10 November 2026. Options A, C and D name other points along the Yamuna in and around Delhi, but none of them is the stretch on which this service runs; they are included because a candidate who remembers only that the cruise is somewhere on the Delhi stretch of the river can be drawn to any familiar pair of names. The project is being developed by the Inland Waterways Authority of India with the Delhi Development Authority, the Delhi Tourism and Transportation Development Corporation, the Delhi Jal Board and the Irrigation and Flood Control Department, and it uses electric-powered vessels.
