VOICED : Can Modi clean the Ganges Indias biggest sewage line

The Ganges River, stretching over 2,500 kilometers across Northern India, is a vital resource for millions but is heavily polluted with sewage, industrial waste, and rubbish. This pollution affects local businesses and poses significant health risks. Despite past government efforts, the river remains polluted. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has prioritized cleaning the Ganges, but challenges remain, particularly from industrial waste. The leather industry in Kanpur is a major polluter, releasing untreated toxic wastewater into the river. The pollution has led to a health crisis, with residents suffering from ailments like skin rashes. Modi's success in restoring the river could fulfill a key election promise and mitigate the environmental and health disaster.
