EVENT DESCRIPTION
Ganga cleaning week is a concept aimed at cleaning and preserving the river Ganga, which is considered sacred by Hindus in India. The river Ganga is one of the most polluted rivers in the world, and the Ganga cleaning week is an effort to raise awareness about the issue and encourage people to take action to clean the river.
The Ganga cleaning week usually takes place in the month of December, and it is a week-long event that involves a series of activities aimed at cleaning the river Ganga. These activities may include river cleaning drives, awareness campaigns, and rallies to raise awareness about the importance of preserving the river.
During Ganga cleaning week, volunteers and participants work together to clean the river by removing garbage, debris, and other waste materials that pollute the river. The participants may also conduct water quality tests to monitor the level of pollution in the river.
The Ganga cleaning week is an important initiative as the river Ganga is not only a sacred river but also a source of livelihood for millions of people in India. It is also an important source of water for agriculture and other activities. However, due to pollution and other factors, the river has become contaminated, leading to health problems and other issues for people living along its banks.
The Ganga cleaning week aims to create awareness about the importance of preserving the river and encourage people to take steps to reduce pollution and restore the river’s health. The event has gained significant support and participation from various organizations, individuals, and the government of India in recent years.
