Delhi begins trial operations of its first Yamuna River cruise, with officials inspecting the project ahead of a launch timed around the Chhath festival. The initiative is presented as a riverfront tourism option intended to give families and other passengers a new recreational experience on the Yamuna.
Across outlets, the cruise is described as a short river journey with set ride duration and pricing. Times of India and Business Line - Home specify details such as a 5 km route, a roughly 40-minute ride, and tickets priced at Rs 500 per person, while also noting capacity and the idea of a trial/soft launch ahead of Chhath. Swarajya and NDTV similarly focus on the start of trial services and the government-led nature of the project, with less emphasis on operational specifics in their summaries.
