In addition to several cleanliness and waste management measures employed at different sites, a unique pavilion has been set up to draw visitors’ attention to environmental protection.
The Namami Gange Pavilion, set up by the Namami Gange Mission in Prayagraj, is spreading awareness about the cleanliness and conservation efforts undertaken by the government for river Ganga.
Raising awareness about the Ganga
The pavilion begins with an interactive biodiversity tunnel that gives a glimpse of the river's biodiversity and natural beauty.
“Equipped with modern projection technology, this tunnel showcases the chirping of birds living on the banks of the Ganga,” a statement said.
The pavilion also features a digital exhibition, which presents efforts for the cleanliness and conservation of the Ganga in an engaging and educational manner.
Another highlight is the Prayag Platform, which displays real-time data on the Ganga-Yamuna rivers and their tributaries, including information on water levels, cleanliness and pollution-related statistics.
One can see the riverfront development and the functioning of sewage treatment plants along the banks of the river.
“This exhibition helps visitors understand how the government and organisations are making technical and structural efforts to maintain the cleanliness of the Ganga,” the statement further said.
The pavilion also features replicas of creatures found in the river, such as the Ganga dolphin, turtles, crocodiles and fish.
Additionally, institutions like the Indian Institute of Forest Management, Ganga Task Force and IIT Delhi are sharing information on the conservation of endangered species of the Ganga, public awareness and waste management.
Reading corner
The exhibition features a special Reading Corner set up by the National Book Trust (NBT), where a collection of books related to the Ganga, Mahakumbh, social policies and national pride is available.
Ganpati statue
The pavilion is also home to a statue of Lord Ganesh, symbolising the purity and cleanliness of the Ganga. This statue aims to strengthen cultural and emotional connections.
