Ganga is the largest river in India.

- The river provides water to 40% of Indian population which is approximately 500 million people.

-The river is mainly polluted by human waste and industrial contaminants.

- As at now it is considered the 5th most polluted river in the world.

- Given that it provides water to a large population, it poses great threats to human life.

- This is because the population uses the water for bathing, laundry, cooking, washing and even drinking.

- Due to these contamination many people have been contracting waterborne diseases such as dysentery, cholera, hepatitis as well as severe diarrhea.

- Severe diarrhea has been the leading cause of death for children in India as of late.

From this we see that the pollution of river Ganga is really affecting human life greatly.

Here is the answer

1. The Amazon river basin is sparsely populated region of Brazil. Unfavorable climate , heavy rainfall , inaccessibility and dense forests are the barriers to development of human settlement here.

2. On the other hand, Ganga plain region is one of the most densely populated region of the India.

3. Due to flat fertile regions , availability of water , suitable climate , dense human settlement have been established in this region.

4. Mining activities in the Amazon basin causes pollution in the Amazon River whereas industry and domestic sewage adds to pollution of river Ganga .

5. But as compared to Amazon, the pollution in the River ganga affects human life greatly.
