A River in Distress

It was once a river where strong currents flowed giving it life and vibrancy. Over the last few years, however, the Shitalalkya River is now on the verge of an untimely death. Environmental degradation in the river water from untreated domestic and industrial effluent has reached such an alarming level that it poses a significant threat to public health, ecosystem and economic growth of surrounding areas.
