There are a variety of reasons due to which the government
has been slow in the cleanup efforts of the India’s Ganges River, which is a
vital natural resource and is thought to be highly contaminated. Firstly the
people of India believe that the Ganges is a holy river and it cannot be
contaminated. Secondly with several industries coming up around the river banks
the government is completely at fault for not committing themselves towards the
cleaning of this holy river.
