World Bank approves one billion to clean Ganga

The World Bank has approved a $1 billion credit and loan for cleaning the river Ganga that accounts for one-fourth of India's water resources.

A significant part of the Bank's support will go towards financing demonstrative investments for reducing pollution in a sustainable manner, in four key sectors: wastewater collection and treatment, industrial pollution control, solid waste management, and riverfront management.
