Summary:
“I have never seen so much water in Ganga and I feel this is after having a saint (Yogi Adityanath) as CM,” said Swami Hari Chaitanya Bharamchari of Tikar Mafi, who has been spreading awareness on Ganga conservation . The level at the venue’s exit point at Chatnag was recorded as 71.95 metre. Ganga’s level has been rising steadily since the past three days and is expected to rise further. The level of Ganga on January 14 during the 2013 Maha Kumbh at Phaphamau was 76 metre and at Chatnag was 71.6 metre.“Over 7,000 cusec of water is being released into Ganga because of which its level is on the higher side since the past fortnight. ALLAHABAD: The Kumbh-2019 is being organised at a time when the volume of water of Ganga is at its highest in the last decade, thanks to continuous efforts to release more water into the river from upstream.The volume of water in Ganga is currently higher than that recorded during the 2013 Maha Kumbh..
