The document outlines the pollution issues facing the Ganges River including industrial waste and lack of sewage treatment. It then discusses the various government plans established over the years to address this such as the Ganga Action Plan in 1985, Supreme Court directives, and the National River Ganga Basin Authority in 2009. The current Namami Ganga initiative launched in 2014 aims to take a zero tolerance approach to pollution through tactics like spending budget on developing the river banks, building more dams, and raising public awareness.
