The Yamuna continued to flow above the danger mark with the water level at 206.60 metres.
The river breached the danger mark of 205.33m on Monday night, and the authorities are expecting the level to go up to 207m by Wednesday.
However, the river has been showing a steady trend since the wee hours of Wednesday, said the Flood Control Department official
"Although the river is showing a steady trend, the situation is critical and we are keeping a close eye on it," the official said.
The water level was rising due to rains in northern India and discharge of water from Hathni Kund Barrage in Haryana.
