Varanasi has often been termed as the cradle of India’s culture. It is a city of scholars, writers, poets and thinkers. The Ganga flows through Varanasi but sadly even here the Ganga’s condition has become pitiable. This task seeks your ideas on a comprehensive plan to clean the Ganga in Varanasi and at the same time a re-development plan for the Ghats of the city.

Excretion near the ghat has to be prohibited. People must be reminded of Ganga's sanctity. Littering should be made a punishable offense and dustbins should be installed every few yards. People should not be allowed to litter in the Ganga in the name of worship. The worship should be organic and non polluting alone. Vendors should not be allowed beyond a point. Boats should not be polluting the water. Cleaners must be employed. A few guards must keep a watch on who is breaking the rules.

We can't go for one solution for all similar issues. Like what some authority without any R&D stating now a days. Applying Sabarmati scheme on either Ganga or Yamuna may prove very negative. For Ganga we need to work on for natural wetlands and wherever there would be any proposal for Ghats, the wetland (maximum) should be avoided. The planning should be so done that, if there would be any sudden rise in river, a parallel channel/ canal should be able to bear the extra load.

There is a strict rule in some islands like Andamans that every one who enters the are a with a plastic bottle has to deposit Rs 100 against the bottle/ container etc and the same is returned when the person show the bottle. In the ghats that are extremely polluted such system can be put in place. Large numbers of fixed metal dustbins should be placed and cloth bags should be provided at nominal prices and fines of shramdan/ money should be imposed for littering the place. Ban on polythene also.

Varanasi ghats need revamping keeping its heritage and religious touch. It can not be developed in form of riverfront development. Along with ghats development one need to preserve the look of other side of the river as well. Mushrooming telecom towers and illegal construction need immediate removal/check. A comprehensive plan for few ghats is being attached in form of .pdf

GHATS OF VARANASI NEEDS RENOVATION BUT AFTER RENOVATION UNTIL AND UNLESS PROPER MAINTENANCE PLANNING WILL NOT BE THERE I DONT EXPECT MUCH CHANGE. PEOPLE THROW GARBAGE HERE AND THERE SOME PEOPLE AND CATTLE EVEN EXCRETE ON SOME GHATS AND THERE IS NO PROPER SYSTEM FOR DIALY CLEANING OF GHATS. SOME GUARDS MUST BE DEPLOYED AT GHATS TO CHECK THESE THINGS AND MOST IMPORTANT AWARENESS CAMPAIGN SHOULD BE THERE TO AWARE PEOPLE ABOUT CLEANNESS AND OTHERS
