Washington, Jun 1, (PTI):

The World Bank has approved a USD one billion credit and loan for cleaning the river Ganga that accounts for one-fourth of India's water resources.

A significant part of the Bank's support will go towards financing demonstrative investments for reducing pollution in a sustainable manner, in four key sectors: wastewater collection and treatment, industrial pollution control, solid waste management, and riverfront management, a statement said. The World Bank's National Ganga River Basin Project will help build the capacity of the NGRBA's new operational institutions to manage the Ganga clean-up and conservation programme. Hope every cent of it goes into the real cleaning and not into the pockets of the  contractors, middlemen, bureaucrats and politicians. And also hope that once it is cleaned, we do not again abuse the socalled Ganga, with all kinds of irreverent acts of letting out municipal sewage, industrial effluents and using it for washing cloths, cattle, etc. along its course.
