Delhi LG Highlights Yamuna Pollution's Impact on Ganga, Urges Student Action
Delhi Lieutenant Governor Taranjit Singh Sandhu highlighted that the Yamuna's 22-kilometre stretch in Delhi, though less than two percent of the river's length, contributes about 76 percent of its pollution. He linked the Yamuna's condition to the larger Ganga basin, emphasizing that a clean Yamuna is essential for a clean Ganga. Addressing students, Sandhu urged simple behavioral changes like avoiding plastic and puja material disposal into the river, stressing individual responsibility alongside broader conservation efforts.
