ND : no more ganga !!!!!!!

A small description of gangotri glacier :

* Location : Uttarakashi district, Uttarakhand, india near indo-china border
* It's the actual source of river ganga.It is about 30 Km long and about 3 Kms wide
* It's terminus is situated at the place named as GOMUKH which is a source of bhagirathi river , a tributary of river ganga

Ganga according to hindu mythology :

According to the hindu mythology ganga came on the earth on the request of the rishi Bhagirath for the upliftment of his ancestors.the river came on earth but with the flow that was going to create a disaster by the river on earth.so the lord shiva kept the extra flow in his hairs (jataa).and since den the holy river is on the earth and is making us to feel the presence of god on this earth.



Ganga facing Global Warming :

Due to the global warming the ganga has faced a very bad circumstances especially in the last 2 decades (nearly 15 years).the gangotri glacier has shifted to a very large distance and the prediction based on present situations tells that the river will become a seasonal river in 20-25 years from now and after 50 yrs from now the river will be no more.Just think of the india without it's pride "ganga".



Apart from global warming, it is also a matter of serious concern that the pollution is continuously making the river water more and more poisonous.Upto rishikesh it's water is guud for drinking and bathing both.At haridwar it becomes nice but only for bathing.At kanpur,Allahabad and Varansi, it is just suitable for bathing.and at patna,it's neither remains suitable for bath and for drinking !!!!!! leave it..In west bengal, it's water becomes that much contaminated that it can kill the water living organisms.
