(a) All the wastewater in India cannot be easily treated because of:

=> Lack of good quality STP'S or sewage treatment plants in good numbers to deal with the sewage.

=> Increasing population increases the amount of sewage and wastewater that is formed.

=> Lack of government funding and credit facilities for setting up of STP'S at important and major cities and towns.

=>Lack of modern technology which is often too expensive to invest in.

=>Lack of public knowledge, initiative and awareness.

6) =>It is directly dumped into rivers, lakes, ponds, bays, estuaries and finally the sea causing heavy water pollution, increasing BOD(Biochemical Oxygen Demand) and faecal coliform levels in waterbodies.

=> It is allowed to seep into the ground through septic tanks and pollutes the water table.

(C) => The untreated wastewater can be sent for preliminary treatment after which it can be utilized for watering non-agricultural plants.

=> It can be used to make compost, fertilizers, in gobar gas plants.
