DJB partners with IIT-Kanpur: Delhi is one step closer to solving its water problem with a fresh partnership that combines brainpower and technology. The Delhi Jal Board (DJB) has collaborated up with IIT Kanpur, leveraging cutting-edge AI and digital twin tech to make water management smarter, faster, and more citizen-friendly.
Smarter Water Networks
At the heart of this collaboration is the creation of a digital twin – a virtual model of Delhi’s water systems. This lets DJB monitor pipelines, water pressure, and quality in real time, spotting leaks or contamination before Delhi residents even notice.
Faster Help for Customers
No more long waits to have your water complaints addressed. The partnership includes upgrading grievance redressal with digital tools that keep you informed every step of the way, making water services more responsive and transparent.
Prevention Through Prediction
AI algorithms constantly analyze data to forecast where pipes might burst or water flow. This means engineers can fix problems proactively, reducing disruptions and wastage.
Cleaner Yamuna, Healthier Delhi
With AI keeping an eye on the Yamuna, tracking pollution sources and untreated sewage, the clean-up mission gets more science, less guesswork, protecting an essential water source for millions.
Sustainable Groundwater Use
Sensors and satellite data join forces to monitor groundwater health, helping manage recharge zones and safeguard this vital resource from overuse.
