GANGA ACTION PLAN
The Ganga action plan was, launched byShri Rajeev Gandhi, the then Prime Minister of India on 14 Jan. 1986 with the main objective of pollution abatement, to improve the water quality by Interception, Diversion and treatment of domestic sewage and present toxic and industrial chemical wastes from identified grossly polluting units entering in to the river. The other objectives of the Ganga Action Plan are as under.
Control of non-point pollution from agricultural run off, human defecation, cattle wallowing and throwing of unburnt and half burnt bodies into the river.
Research and Development to conserve the biotic, diversity of the river to augment its productivity.
New technology of sewage treatment like Up-flow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket (UASB) and sewage treatment through afforestation has been successfully developed.
Rehabilitation of soft-shelled turtles for pollution abatement of river have been demonstrated and found useful.
Resource recovery options like production of methane for energy generation and use of aquaculture for revenue generation have been demonstrated.
To act as trend setter for taking up similar action plans in other grossly polluted stretches in other rivers.
The ultimate objective of the GAP is to have an approach of integrated river basin management considering the various dynamic inter-actions between abiotic and biotic eco-system.
Notwithstanding some delay in the completion of the first phase of GAP it has generated considerable interest and set the scene for evolving a national approach towards replicating this program for the other polluted rivers of the country. The Government of India proposed to extend this model with suitable modifications to the national level through a National River Action Plan (NRAP). The NRAP mainly draws upon the lessons learnt and the experience gained from the GAP besides seeking the views of the State Governments and the other concerned Departments/Agencies.
Under NRCP scheme the CPCB had conducted river basin studies and had identified 19 gross polluted stretches and 14 less polluted stretches along 19 rivers, which include 11 stretches situated along 7 rivers of M.P.
hope it's help you if u like the answer mark as a brain list

Introduction: The Ganga or the Ganges is the longest river in India. River Ganga originates from the Gangotri in the Himalayas. Then, it flows through the major areas of Northern India and undivided Bengal; it had met the Bay of Bengal. Thus, it traversed a long distance of 2525 km; and it covers 861404 sq km areas of its basin.
Hindus in India regard the river, Ganga as a goddess. They firmly believe that the holy water of this river possesses the sanctifying virtues. The civilization and the cultural life of North and Eastern India flowered and flourished in the basin of the Ganga.
Clean Ganga: Our Government is taking active interest in cleaning the water of Ganga River. A clean Ganga fund has also been set up to collect funds that would be used in various activities relating to the rejuvenation of Ganga River. Few of them are mentioned below:
To carry out the activities of ‘Namami Ganga’ programme.
To control Ganga water pollution.
Waste and disposal treatment plants should be set up.
Redevelopment of Ghats
R&D projects for cleaning the river, etc.
What Factors have contributed to the pollution of the Ganga waters?
The erosion of the banks is a permanent feature; and this fact has been constantly making the waters muddy, full of dirt, and filthy. Large portions of its banks are protected with trees and forests; and the remaining parts are, obviously, battered by erosion.
Secondly, many towns and cities are located in the Ganga basin; and the decomposed substances, both organic and inorganic, of them find their last refuge in the waters of the Ganga.
Thirdly, the vast areas in the Ganga basin have been occupied by industrial complexes. The textile, leather, plastic, and rubber factories of these places have been exhausting their poisonous effluents to the Ganga; and the sewage disposals of the chemical plants have been playing havoc with the process.
