Reviving River Ganga’s Pristine Glory for Nurturing Lives

India is a land of holy rivers that have been venerated across eons, River Ganga being the Mother of all rivers, sustaining civilizations with her precious waters. Rising from the high mountains of the Himalayas, River Ganga traverses a course of more than 2,500 km meandering through the plains of north and eastern India, emptying into the blue waters of the Bay of Bengal. Alas! She has been sullied ruthlessly by the very people she nurtures, threatening her existence. To restore the lifeline of millions of people, Hon'ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi launched the Namami Gange programme in June 2014 to rejuvenate River Ganga and its tributaries. This has borne fruits, with the water Mainstem River Ganga achieving bathing standards as planned as indicated by the significant increase in bio-diversity, particularly of dolphins, otters and other riverine ecosystem in it and the values of dissolved oxygen and BoD reported by lab analysis of the river water and acknowledged by UN as one of the top 10 " World Restoration flagships".
