Flood Situation in Delhi: Relief Camps & Evacuation
With thousands of people displaced by floods, the Delhi government has set up 38 relief camps across the city. According to officials:
- 522 tents installed at 27 sites
- 8,018 people staying in tents

Relief camps are located near Shastri Park Metro Station, Mayur Vihar, and Civil Lines. People continue to face challenges such as lack of clean drinking water, mosquito menace, and inadequate bedding.

Life in Tents: Struggles of Displaced Families
Families evacuated from Yamuna Khadar are now living in makeshift tents on roads. Scenes outside Shastri Park Metro station show rows of white conical tents, damp mats, and clothes hanging on ropes.
Inside one tent, Kamlawati, an elderly woman, pointed to a small polythene bag in a corner and said, “This is all that is left.” People sleep on scrap plywood boards, thermocol sheets, or rickshaw carts in the absence of proper bedding.
For Poonam, a mother of a six-month-old baby, the struggle is even harder. “Living under the open sky with a child like this is very difficult. There is no privacy, no comfort, and we worry about the baby’s health every moment,” she said.

In North Delhi’s Civil Lines, just 2 km away from Chief Minister Rekha Gupta’s residence, several homes were submerged, forcing residents to shift temporarily. Those who stayed behind arranged private generators after electricity supply was cut off in the area.
