Local authorities in Noida have dismantled an illegal road built by sand miners across the Yamuna River. The road connected two banks and was constructed using wooden planks and sandbags, violating mining lease conditions. The action followed a report highlighting the road's construction, which allowed heavy machinery access to the riverbanks. Officials stated they will monitor the area to prevent further illegal activities. This is the first official response to such activities, which have reportedly been ongoing for four years. Authorities are also addressing similar construction on the Delhi side of the river.
