River Pollution

It is indeed a matter of great concern that rivers, which are our basic and largest source of fresh water are subject to such heavy and careless degrees of pollution. Tanneries, chemical industries, mills, slaughter houses, hospitals are a major concern that contributes incessantly to pollution of our rivers by discharging untreated waste into it. In the absence of proper living conditions in the country, many people perform their daily activities such as bathing, washing, and defecation, on the banks of the rivers, thus polluting them. The unchecked discharge of sewage and domestic waste into the rivers is a major cause of river pollution. Idol immersion during religious ceremonies in the rivers is a major environmental hazard that’s polluting the rivers. Adding to the woes are floral offerings such as garlands cast off into rivers and ashes of dead people after cremation poured into rivers.
