Ganga water pollution

Continuous heavy rains have caused a significant increase in the water level of Ganga. Ganga is flowing above danger mark in Rishikesh.

Despite being considered purifying and healing by millions of Hindus, the truth is that the waters of the Gange are so polluted that they have caused more than 50,000 cases of pancreatic cancer, among other diseases, in the population of northern India.
