Take up the issue of pollution of River Ganga as a political issue in the forthcoming elections ! – Prayagraj Commissioner

Jhunsi : Different drives were undertaken for making River Ganga pollution-free; but they did not achieve much. We talk about development; but along with that, the issue of Ganga pollution should also be considered as of equal importance and should be made a political issue in elections. The above opinion was expressed by Mr. Devesh Chaturvedi, the Commissioner of Prayagraj.

‘Ganga Sansad’ was held for 3 days at Govind Vallabh Pant Science Institute and Mr. Chaturvedi was speaking during its conclusion program. He said, “The project of processing sewage water is not implemented honestly due to corruption. Mostly, dirty water is directly released in River Ganga. The anti-pollution drive of Ganga is also adversely affected owing to corruption.” (The Commissioner should explain what he has done to stop pollution of Ganga at Prayagraj ! – Editor SP) Saint Maheshanand Maharaj said, “There should be no dams on Ganga. If all dams built on Ganga are removed, there will be no famine in the country.” Yesterday, retired Army Chief, V. K. Singh joined this ‘Sansad’.
