Ganga,Krishna,Narmada,Kaveri are the major and most significant rivers in INDIA. These rivers have nourished and nurtured us for thousands of years, now the time has come to nourish and nurture them back to health. INDIAN rivers are undergoing radical change, the main reasons for this change are over population,industrialization and development. The perennial rivers like Ganga,Yamuna,Indus,Narmada are becoming seasonal or parched.All the small rivers have already vanished.

Evident Facts about our rivers : -
-> 25% of INDIA is turning into desert.
-> In 15 years, we may have only half the water we need for our survival.
-> The Ganga is one of the most endangered rivers in the world.
-> The Godavari was dry along much of its length last year.
-> The Kaveri has lost 40% of its flow. Krishna and Narmada have lost around 60%
How can we save our rivers : -
Isha Foundation offers a core solution to stabilize and revitalize our rivers, they have a lot of experience in matters related to ENVIRONMENT and sustainability. Growing and maintaining a substantial amount of trees, for a minimum of at least one kilometer width along the river sides. In government owned lands along the riverside, forest trees would be planted and the organic fruit trees are planted on private lands.

This solution ensures that rivers are restored while enhancing farmers livelihood by more than doubling their income in five years. The availability of fruit also improves nutritional intake among people.
Trees help keep rivers perennial, mitigate floods and drought, increase precipitation, mitigate climate change and prevent soil erosion.

Each country has its own set of rules on water protection. Each of us have the duty to have a clean country, to live in a natural environment. Polluted water affects flora and fauna, so each government has its own problem solving strategies. Thank you @abudar
