A Swedish firm focusing on sewage sludge management has shown interest in collaborating with Delhi to enhance the city's wastewater infrastructure.

The broader strategy involves integrating domestic capabilities with international expertise and advanced technology to accelerate the Yamuna cleanup and improve Delhi's overall water management.
