Answer:

The Correct Answer is Ganga River

Explanation:

Pollution of the Ganges, India's greatest river, poses serious risks to human health and the environment. The river, which is badly contaminated with human waste and industrial toxins, supplies water to nearly 40% of India's population over 11 states, servicing an estimated population of 500 million people, making it the world's largest river.

Today, the Ganges is regarded as the world's sixth most polluted river.

No one in India spoke of the Ganges being contaminated until the late 1970s, according to Raghubir Singh, an Indian photojournalist.

However, by the time people were finally noticing the river's pollution, it had been a long and continual process. Ecologically, there were stretches of almost 600 km (370 mi) that were effectively dead zones.
