Measures for Clean Rivers in Arunachal Pradesh

We have a fixed amount of water on earth in the form of solid, liquid and gas. Therefore, the sources of clean water for drinking and other purposes are limited too. These water resources are getting polluted due to everyday human-related factors. Most measures for the clean river are not working fully due to presence from the grassroots level of various pollutant factors that are social, religious, cultural and industrial. Social and religious practices like dumping dead bodies in the water, bathing, throwing waste in the water should be ceased in drinkable water resources like rivers, sea, oceans etc.

Additionally, by using environment-friendly products that do not go on to become pollutants, we can reduce the amount of water pollution caused by a household. Self-cleaning of beverage bottles, disposals and other wastes from the water bodies like streams, rivers and sea etc. after picnics and other merrymaking events should also be monitored and maintained. Water wastage is a major problem globally so we should start by saving water from our homes.

Through small changes in saving water domestically, we can make a huge difference. Conserving water should be one of our main objectives to save nature. Let’s not ignore this aspect of our lives anymore.

MyGov Arunachal supplicates for suggestions on various measures that can be undertaken to maintain clean river in the state.

Just a few decades ago, Indians across the nation would walk down to the local stream or river to collect drinking water, wash their clothes, take a bath or just swim and enjoy themselves. Today, doing anything of this sort is out of the question and can have serious health consequences. Like many other rivers around the world, India’s rivers – which have always been given a position of sanctity in the culture – have become polluted bodies of water. And yet, Indians cannot turn away from these .

Multi-pronged approach is needed to address this issue. Awareness among citizens need to be created about the importance of clean rivers and other environmental issues. Awareness camps shall be held across the state to create awareness among citizens. Stringent laws shall be enacted and strictly implemented against those who willfully violate laws leading to polluting of rivers. Frequent drives for cleaning river beds and shores involving citizens to volunteer shall help in creating awareness.
