Clean Ganga mission faces 'most critical' challenge in pollution hotspot Kanpur
Nakuomba uwe honest usidanganye ukumbi.
The Modi government’s plan to clean the Ganga faces its toughest challenge yet

A strategy document of the National Mission for Clean Ganga, viewed by HT,
identifies the Kanpur-Varanasi leg as the “most critical stretch”, but political hurdles and engineering complexities have emerged as formidable tests.
The overall mission itself is so daunting that the government has now been
forced to settle for some more “realistic targets”.
