It’s a pleasure to read another excellent post of yours, and I completely agree that humankind these days do not treat rivers and other bodies of water with respect. Yet, as many researchers (including Dr. Masaru Emoto with his water crystals etc) have uncovered, water responses to whatever our actions towards it (or shall I say, her?). In the past, before the bloom of plastic, non-organic garbage and other pollutants, it might be save to cast dead bodies away into the Gangga. As you and Vimal said above, Gangga’s water contains some elements that are basically antibiotic in nature. But as Arun also said, we should not push our luck, particularly with the pathetic state of our current technology.

Better be conservative now and conserve and treat Mother Gangga (and other rivers as well) with full respect they deserve.

Thank you very much for taking us on to the River Ganga.

All said and done, river Ganga is very unique as you have narrated through out the length of the article…

There are two major threats to river Ganga,

1. Utter exploitation of Ganga to pump the polluted waste products into Ganga. Even half burnt dead bodies some times rotten dead bodies are making Ganga impure. She has got tremendous capicity to purify herself and purify others but hter is certainly a limit, which we should not test it. A strong public awareness and stringent laws are required to stop this crime against the nature.

2. China is becoming a fast threat for pouring of water from Himalayas to Ganga. China is in acute short of water after its expansion in industries. Its aim is to capture the water source of Himalayan Mountains. We need to have a large scale campaign against these evils in and around the country. Himalayan parivar and Ganga Parivar are doing their level best in making people aware. But the threats are very serious in magnitude and depth.

Other threats are Global Worming and so on.

In this respect I tried to draw your attention. You must have more information about the above said points. If you have got, please write on that topic also.

Arun
