{ REPORT SOUGHT FROM STATE GOVT

- Pawan Dixit

The National Green Tribunal (NGT) has taken serious note of regional rivers in Uttar Pradesh being classified as drains in a report submitted to it in an ongoing case related to prevention and control of pollution in the Ganga.

The tribunal has acknowledged the risk of misclassifying seasonal or small rivers as drains and stressed on the need to conserve them for maintaining the Ganga’s ecological balance.

The issue came to light on July 23 when a bench of the NGT comprising chairperson Justice Prakash Shrivastava, Justice Sudhir Agarwal and expert member A Senthil Vel was hearing a petition related to preventing pollution in the Ganga and its tributaries and ensuring their cleanliness.
