Ganga Cleanliness Mission

The Ganga Cleanliness Mission, officially known as the Namami Gange Programme, is an initiative by the Indian government aimed at reducing pollution and restoring the ecological health of the River Ganga. It involves constructing sewage treatment plants, controlling industrial waste discharge, revitalizing aquatic life, and promoting community participation. The goal is to ensure clean, safe water for millions of people who rely on the Ganga for drinking, agriculture, and religious practices, while also preserving its ecological and cultural significance. The mission represents a comprehensive effort to improve the river’s water quality through sustainable and integrated measures.
