NMCG Advances Wastewater Management with Integrated Network and Nature-Based Projects
The National Mission for Clean Ganga (NMCG) has advanced wastewater management through two initiatives: an integrated sewerage network in Rishikesh unifying treatment across Rishikesh, Tapovan, and Muni Ki Reti with a 55 MLD capacity, and two pilot projects employing nature-based constructed wetlands for treating Yamuna drains with a combined 10 MLD capacity. These efforts aim to enhance river conservation by improving sewage treatment using both modern infrastructure and sustainable, low-energy methods.
