"Due to a good monsoon and a rise in the
Yamuna river water levels, high density (mosquito) breeding has been found in
the Village and neighbouring areas," municipal health official V.K. Monga
told The Times of India.
"To check this, we have introduced Gambusia
fish in the water body near the training venue," he said.
A species of the Gambusia is known as the
"mosquitofish" as it consumes the insect's larvae.
The Times said a Malaysian athlete participating
in a Games test event in July had contracted dengue.
