Ganga Action Plan
Ganga Action Plan
Ganga Action Plan (GAP): River Ganga runs its course of over 2500 kms from Gangotri in the Himalayas to Ganga Sagar in the Bay of Bengal through many cities. During the course, it becomes polluted due to sewage disposal and other human activities. The Ganga Action Plan was launched by Mr. Rajiv Gandhi, the then Prime Minister of India on 14th January 1986. The main aim of GAP is the diversion and treatment of sewage, prior to its disposal into the Ganga. The plan also includes active participation and awareness in public about the cleaning of the Ganga.
Effects of Poor Sanitation: Poor sanitation is the root cause of many diseases. In our country, many people still do not have sewerage facilities. These people are forced to defecate in open places, near railway tracks, agricultural fields or on the river banks. Villagers defecate in the open, on dry river beds, fields and even directly in water bodies. This untreated human excreta is the source of water and soil pollution. The polluted water seeps through the ground and contaminates underground sources of water like wells and springs. When this contaminated water is used for drinking and other purposes, it causes many diseases like cholera, typhoid, polio, meningitis, hepatitis and dysentery. The called waterborne diseases.
