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-systems.
The other objectives of the Indian Government's Ganga Action Plan are summarised as :-
Research and Development to conserve the biotic, diversity of the river to augment its productivity.
Rehabilitation of soft-shelled turtles for pollution abatement of river have been demonstrated and found useful.
New technology of sewage treatment like Up-flow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket (UASB) and sewage treatment through afforestation has been successfully developed.
Control of non-point pollution from agricultural run off, human defecation, cattle wallowing and throwing of unburnt and half burnt bodies into the river.
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.
