Union minister discusses water treatment programme with seer

Allahabad: Union Minister Nitin Gadkari visited Kumbh mela and met president of Parmarth Niketan Swami Chidanand here on Friday.
The Union minister for river building and Ganga rejuvenation held a temporary discussion with Swami Chidanand centred on advancing the spread of the Geotube physio-remediation water treatment programmes. Chidanand was the first to bring this generation as a pilot plan in Rishikesh on June 2018, creating India’s first ‘Sewage to Selfie point.’ The challenge was completed with the combined effort of European scientists and Indian engineers using a mix of external resources and materials with local ones.

Centre and the state executive, inspired by way of the success of the generation, began utilising this generation proactively to scrub up nullahs (sewers) flowing into the Yamuna and Ganga, particularly in Prayagraj forward of the Kumbh, to supply clean water for sacred snans.


During their meeting on Friday, Swami Chidanand emphasized on bringing the generation to Assi and Varuna rivers and to create more ‘Sewage to Selfie points’ in primary towns along the Ganga, like Kanpur and Patna. He lauded the efforts of the nationwide project for clean Ganga and was satisfied to be assured by way of Gadkari that no untreated sewerage would run into the Ganga by way of 2020.


“When our rivers are clean, our nation is healthy. When there may be Ganga, there may be the following day. As Ganga prospers, India prospers. If we let Ganga die, India dies”, mentioned Chidanand.


Chief Minister of Gujarat Vijay Rupani also visited Parmarth Niketan at Arial on Friday. Rupani mentioned, “Swamiji’s slogan ‘Beti hai to kal hai aur Ganga hai to jal hai’ is want of the hour. Protection of the girl kid, finishing kid marriage and teaching and empowering girl kid is a very powerful to the growth of our nation”.
