Answer 2

The pitiful state of Subarnarekha stands testimony to the changing times.

This unique characteristic of the river is also its curse since large-scale mining is found to be slowly killing the river.
The drains of Jamshedpur, the largest city in the basin, directly fall into the river. They contain untreated solid wastes. As per a study by Bhuyan et al, (4) the presence of faecal coliform in Subarnarekha basin is significant… the poor water quality of Baridhi Nallah is due to the improper treatment of the effluents from the Jamshedpur steel plant. Tata Steel, however, refutes this. Going by the Environm.....
