All types of idol immersion (Durga/Ganpati) should be banned in Ganga and all other rivers. Maximum idols are made up of plaster of paris (POP) which pollutes water further.

There is exigency to reform the institutional mechanism to improve the quality of water resources.

One of the most important thing which has happened in India in last 20 years is cultural degradation in the name of Globalization. We have to change our education system and must put it back to ancient state. Any civilization disappears when its cultures and values are broken.. and so is the western strategy and they are pretty successful so far!. Our culture teaches about amalgamation with environment in which we live. We will have to teach from nursery level about good habits, cleanliness..

We will have to take strict steps such as ban on non biodegradable waste such as polythene bags, plastics. If we replace them with biodegradable products our 30% of task will be over. Second is the industrial waste. All the existing industries must have to produce a certificate that waste they creating are treated in the plants. Third task is for local municipal level bodies for treatment of household waste.
