According the justice said they have directed DDA to nominate a senior officer as a member of a committee which shall constitute chief engineers from the irrigation department of Delhi and UP. 


He said that monsoon has already arrived and immediate orders were required for rejuvenation of Yamuna floodplains. However, advocate Nikhil Sakhardande, appearing for the Art of Living (AOL), opposed the submission and said that no direction was required at this stage because the matter was part heard and hearing in the main case is still going on.
