Clean Ganga was highlighted in BJP Manifesto in 2014 General Elections. Whereas, Tall claims of Modi are no where close to the implementation of the mission. Only 8 to 63 percent funds were utilized from 2014-17 and a large portion of funds remained unused.

Several Industries, Resorts such as Sarovar Portico and Eateries have been contributing to the pollution of Ganga. Show-cause Notices were issued to 180 defaulting Industries. As many as 42 out of them had neither submitted their compliance nor approached UEPPCB for inspection.

River Ganga floating in PM Modi's Varanasi constituency happens to be one of the most polluted. While Oxygen Levels have plummeted, Coliform Bacteria has been at an alarming level and the water isn't even good for bathing. What explanation does Modi & Ramdev Baba offer?
