India is cleaning up Ganga river. Here’s how.

- We are experiencing a dangerous decline in nature: One million species are threatened with extinction, soils are turning infertile and water sources are drying up.
But there are glimmers of hope: The Ganga river basin is not only home to twenty-five thousand animal and plant species, such as the Ganga River Dolphin, it also forms the spiritual and economic lifeline for almost half of India’s population. With increased pollution, the country’s greatest natural asset is at risk. Watch how farmers, wildlife advocates and government experts are teaming up to bring a river back to life.
Namami Gange has been recognized as a World Restoration Flagship under the UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration.
These initiatives represent Earth’s frontiers of hope, as countries agreed to a new Global Biodiversity Framework. Under the agreement, countries promise to protect 30% of the planet’s lands and seas, and bringing back 20% from degradation.

Ganga is so iconic that in Sri Lanka, the Sinhala word for river is ganga.
The name Mekong comes from Ganga too. We all belong to the same civilization.
That is something I did not know. Interesting.
@@dutybound5079 we are not taught our own history that is why we don't know such things cultural and civilisational influence of Bharat and the unity that we shared we aren't even remotely made aware of such things the British and the people they left behind in power ensured this and BJP is th most impotent party in the world
Thanks for information. I didn't know this.
@@siddeshnaik2296 actually it is the most potent one.....due to BJP, these upgradation things are happening.
Germanys rivers were also heavily polluted due to the Industrial revolution, chemical industry and waste water. Nowadays they are clean, I believe the same can be achieved in India an I know you will achieve it, I know many bright Indians, future is bright for India.
@@sutapasbhattacharya9471 Well to be honest I didn't know about that, but I am indeed German - my YT name is just an alias. I know a lot of people though who enjoy and adapted a small part of the Indian Yoga culture into their lives. Furthermore due to my work in business processes I had the pleasure to work with a lot of Indian colleagues (SAP professionals) and I have a great opinion about them.
@@Elliott_Elliott how much is your package??
One of my clients got SAP implemented and it cost them approx a million dollars and in the name of support they say we are looking into it, one ID creation cost $3k.
Don't know what they do all these money.
I have wondered the beauty of Rhine and Moselle in Koblenz and many other small villages around. Good to hear from Germany.
@@frankcastle5596 Oh I am just a SAP key account user. I am not sure about the exact prices, but it’s really expensive and you need sn expensive SAP inhouse consulting team as well.

The GANGA river has definitely gotten cleaner. I grew up near it and I remember that many parts of the river just was filled with trash. But seeing massive improvements these days.
And corpses
@@sicomell corpses are not directly dumped into any river, only ashes of corpses are, which ultimately mixes with silt, clay and other soil particles carried by the rivers.
@@sicomell If u don't know the cremation ritual of india & that only ashes goes in water then Make urself more aware to lessen ur ignorance before speaking on or abt something.
Yup, In ganga ghats of patna Now ppl go for walk, study or for enjoy peace & pleasure of nature's ambience coz it is that clean & beatiful..In Banaras too the ghats and river got very clean that It seems out of world beauty when mirror clean forever flowing river gets decorated with Diyas specially on Ram navmi & diwali evening, I remember a big joint group of my family (except me) together with many relative's families went on Ayodhya tour back in 2013 or 14 & My mom told me how bad the situation of saryu river was that they went for just hand-feet water wash in it to get in temple & worship, some old gradma's in group wanted to have 1-2 "dubki" before pray in temple But Non happened, they resort to tap water & Most in group got disgusted from how bad condition the river had.
@@trusfratedbunny2215actually we have water burial as well in some river side communities, i don't know how human body is polution? It's organic, water based animals eat it... It's very very sustainable
So good to see Ganga getting this love and attention.
Many years ago, I washed in the Beas River. I had to walk a kilometre before I could find a spot where I would not get swept away. I have always been a part of your land since then.
I wish you would come again. India has a certain kind of nostalgia.
your words are greater than the feelings of appreciation some Indians have for this land. India is a part of you as well!
Appreciate those kind words man, do visit again! 4 parts of india, 4 contrasting cultures and geography
I love India! I hope they will continue to ride to help lead out world to a brighter future! Namaste~🥰

Ganga is not only 1 of the 3 holy rivers but also supports a lot of people and animals by providing fresh water source and we already lost 2 of the holy rivers, we must protect Ganga bcs it's our responsibility.
which are the other holy rivers ?

@@manasdhibar3637 How we’re they “destroyed” especially with proto industrial technology before the advent of Anglo sax*ns? Last I checked using river water and making canals to facilitate crop irrigation isn’t destruction, dumping copious amounts of factory induced poison is.
@@Tenisinspector8341 yes that's what i am saying as a youngster i don't have luxury to experience that beautiful river that was used to have, now its all polluted thanks to our older generations , who didn't protected the river and forest and never cared to do the same
The NEP absolutely has to embed Japan's learning construct: kids cleaning their school classrooms, premises and bathrooms as well. Fresh water is life
Ganga river was the home for pink dolphins 😢and so many different water species
Very informative video because i never knew there were dolphins over there. Nice
@@sharmi9891Gangetic dolphin protection sites and observatories exist in places like Bhagalpur etc.
Yes there are still dolphin there but only in its tributaries
Thx for adding ur information, it's very interesting @Kraken Thunder
Are the river species still alive after all this pollution...
by looking at the subtitles i can see how the locals what they are saying are misinterpreted.. they are saying something else and the subtitles are saying something else
Rly? Can you translate?
@@justaguyfromreddit their subtitles convey broadly the same meaning but we can expect better translation from UN
lost in translation
The beauty of knowing (a bit) Hindi has its advantages in my case eventhough born and living abroad with Bhojpuri and Dutch language.
the translation is pretty much spot on.
THanks to Modiji for sticking to his promise. The Ganga is at the heart of Hindu religion. Somewhere down the line during Mughal and Colonial era, the Hindus fell into wrong teachings that dumping anything into Ganga will make it holy.
But since 2014, we are proud of the people around Ganga and the Govt for continuously cleaning up the soul of India.
Thanks for covering this.
Ah yes blame the mughals and British. Not the brahmins who perpetuate to Hindus. Unless you mean brahmins didn't guide Hindus at all
as he said this project is not initiated by government
it is an individual effort
@@alpeshchaudhary391 Lol no. Read about Namami Gange. Everyone knows it was one of his poll promises in 2014. Also u can see in video 2014 is often mentioned.

Many people consider ganga as their mother and I can absolutely understand them, when there is no one to support you or you are depressed just take a dive in rishikesh. its so rejuvenating and all the stress is gone. Even though my religion doesn't consider it as monther but i personally consider ot as mother and hopefully like rishikesh one day clean water will also flow in Varanasi and kolkata.
Its the bond bro. We can't survive without it. Hence she is like a mother
I was in Haridwar People worship river, take a dip in river, then come out, remove their underwear and give it to the mother (river).
Sadly most people only want to wash sins and body they don't give a fuck about river, they are selfish people.
So don't pollute and destroy your mother.
Just some 100 km from ganga the chambal river is clean despite people not calling her a mother.
We probably should respect the river as a natural entity and keep it clean rather than terming it holy while at the same time not care about it.
@@surajbiradar9827 poverty my friend. Poverty.
@@thethreespikes9737 nautanki only nautanki
I live near Diamond Harbour, a city towards the mouth of Ganga into Bay of Bengal. Each monsoon, we see so many dolphins gather up and hunt migratory "Ilish"(species of herring), that come all the way from ocean to spawn. The water here is brackish, and very polluted. The place is not far from one of the biggest ports in India, Haldia. Although the number of dolphin coming each year has been decreasing. I hope somebody documents this phenomena through a documentary, before it's gone
It's not Ganges, its GANGA.
Ganges is English name for Ganga so technically both are correct. like Sindhu river is called Indus river in English.
Edit:- India is also given by British go and change it to bahrat and Hindu is given by persion go and change it to Sanatan. I am just saying that Ganges is correct for them not for us. And if you have any problem with that go and protest in England or in UN not debet with me. I am not going to reply anyone so please not try to debate with me.
@@graphindi "Kunal" is not definitely Ur English name . Tell me your Fking English name ??
@@graphindi but when we call any English name improperly in our accent, we are considered illiterate.
From now on I'll call these wrong pronouncing foreigners illiterate as well.
@@Emoechaiti lol wtf are you talking about? this isn't the 19th century bruh
@@graphindi names don't translate in other languages. Names are same in every language
I have been hearing of this namami gange project since long, but didn't knew about it's achievements until i saw this video.
It is Ganga river, not ganges. Stop changing the name for your sake. Respect name and culture.
Get some education.
Why is your display name is Aztec? You Mexican?! If not change it to GangaMaiyaKaBhakt
@@swarajification That is my univeraity's mascot, team name and each student can be called with Aztec.
@@swarajification what wrong he said? seems like you have particular kind of hatred for those who celebrate their culture ? ganga is the name not ganges
we should be more concerned about the pollution rather than the naming.
Proper education to citizens is much needed in order to keep the country in all its assets clean.
As someone said; clean water gives energy and happiness to humans and above all, the animals. Happy to see young ones are interested to do so, great job guys!
Brilliant effort 🙏...now the speed and scale has to be increased... Ganga is our mother, a mother we love, taking care of her is the duty of every Indian! 🇮🇳
What has happened to Uma Bharti?

Excellent work...restoring our is key to human survival
Humans should take care of the planet for the love for her and everything that lives on it, not to "survive".
Inspiring iniative, really needed, I'm from north east Arunachal Pradesh visited agra once and got really disappointed that the famous river which we heard about since birth was not as thought of. Hope through this initiative will get to see a glimpse of the historical Ganga in its natural form
Yes !!!
The river in Agra is Yamuna. It's still bad.
for sure!
I believe in India! The most beautiful and cultural rich country! Jai maha Bharat!
Thank you 😊
Proud of India 🇮🇳 Govt effort to clean Ganga River !
Respect sir am from India Tamil Nadu in Chennai i am a lawyer Practice in supreme court of India New Delhi. I would like join WORLD ENVIRONMENT TEAM'
how join together.
❤
if it happens to other rivers it will be good as many rivers are dead in india now, and many are going to die within 10 yrs
better farming methods, planting world class sewage treatment plant, afforestation, removing the present garbage from rivers is necessary now otherwise indian rivers future is in danger
goverement, ngos, local community help in large scale is required

@@nilotpaldeb1551 no they are not going to die that easily, name the dying rivers.

Thank-you and regards, to all those who are at the forefront.
I wish the same is implemented in Musi in Hyderabad and Godavari in Rajahmundry
fun fact : no indian media showed this to anyone :w
They're busy dividing people of India
Our media is 💩
If they show all this you people would cry godi media
They only thrive by doing hindu muslim and showing negativity
Thank you all who are working on restoring this magnificent river! I feel proud that someone is actually capable of doing all this.
Great job. Birth control is so important in overpopulated areas of the world. Fewer people=less pollution etc.
US has more per capita pollution than India
That's amazing to hear and lets you know a problem will most likely be solved. When a government problem becomes a movement of the people!!!
If this is true. I am very proud of the efforts made. Kudos to all the people of India
Why should this not be true! Where are you from?
mostly true, yes. But it's not very large scale yet, hopefully we are heading there
@@sutapasbhattacharya9471 pakistan 😂
You'd belive it instantly if instead they said that 90% of Indians don't have toilets or that minorities don't have a voice here, right? We don't need your kudos, man.
Kudos to the government of india
As a citizen I also want to be a part of it and do my bit of contribution.
Not polluting and encouraging others not to pollute will be the biggest contribution, not only to Ganga but to other rivers also ...
Kicking anyone taking a leak on the banks would be a good start.
@@shikshapandey8196 there is no such thing as not polluting. You and I both pollute. Just because you dump your garbage in a dustbin doesn't mean it vanishes into thin air. Your garbage and my garbage ends up either in a landfield somewhere, floats through a river where it's dumped or at best is burned down so that the smoke rises up in the air and depletes the ozone layer slowly. So to advise someone not to pollute is to ask them to do the impossible. We as citizens of India have not yet fully gone plastic free...let alone stop polluting as a whole.
@@shikshapandey8196 that’s not enough, not even worth it honestly.
plant atleast 3 trees every birthday near your house and save the environment. If you are 20 and live upto 80 years and 1 out of every 3 trees survive then you would have planted 60 trees or maybe more.
I was watching Devom ke dev mahadev; a serial about lord shiva, an episode in it made me feel concerned about current status of ganga, I knew I can not bring much change to ganga river but I wanted to know what is happening. And this video made me feel happy, feels like we humans have started to acknowledge the value of our nature. Let me take this time to promise myself that I will help preserve our natural assets. ❤
River ganga is the third holiest river for me.
1. Saraswati river
2. Sindhu river
One of the most important aspects of improving water quality is stopping industry runoff or at least treating the water before it is discharged into the river. No matter how many sacrifices the people make, if the industries aren't pressured to take steps to prevent pollution, the change will seem minimal. From this video, it seems that not much has changed in that regard.
This video doesn't show it but massive changes have been made to stop such polluting inflows by building huge STPs.
Brilliant to see, well done to everyone involved. It is so important
Great work. Kudos to everyone involved.
that is great to see. hats off to India
Local word should be adopted instead of word that coloniser pronounced
She’s “Ganga”
Don't accept the word "colonialism" bro. Call them foreigners or firangi. Accepting will help them in some way or another.
Speaking English and demands native pronunciation...
@@Shrey_Shrek Actually English once was native Indian language,then British came loot from us,I hate British
@@Msam773 lmao
Names of towns, rivers, mountains etc... are different depending on the language it is spoken in. Nothing stops you from using the indian name though, as long as it's understood well :>.
I'm sure it's even the case in India between the many different languages, that many towns or natural places are called differently. You should see how we butcher english towns in France... though this tendency is disappearing. Winchester as Bicêtre stays funny :>.
Ganga was the river around which the second wave of the Indian civilization was made. It is where a lot of our culture and beliefs come from. It is holy not because of religious reasons but because of its selfless gift of life for one of the oldest civilizations still alive today. We need to save it and all the life within it not because of its holy nature but because we will die without it.
India will never be clean. Stop dreaming f f s
🙏 you can do it India
The people of India are cleaning their holy river. It's just dern inspirational.

I hope it keeps going. Return of wildlife and planting (a diverse mix of local) plants will help keep the public engaged.
Three main needs to make Ganga the ancient Ganga
1. Heavy plantation to the river basins
2. Factory waste Water treatment
3. All humans have to join hands to save the endangered flora and fauna and the native aqua life.
though we are far from the aim i hope one day we can restore the aquatic life and clean the river which gave life to so many indian generations.

Kudos, Cleaning up River Ganga is not a difficult task at all given the awareness and intent. Only the industries assoc around the R Ganga and R Yamuna should have stringent environmental clearance.
Thanks everyone for doing this. Thanks UN for not ignoring Bharat's progress.❤

Ganga is one of the signature rivers of the entirety of the Bhartiya Civilization, and the mainly worshipped river of the second phase of Bhartiya history(Saraswati was the previous one).
About time. You need to do more. Again. The factories. They are your biggest pollution source. Have their waste sent to a treatment plant. An NOT dumped into the river. If any kid dies its their fault and you Must hold them accountable.
