#Yamuna a dead river, says report, even as focus on Clean #Ganga

The Yamuna is almost dead, the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) has said, even as the government single-mindedly pushes to clean the Ganga and overlooks the filthy river at its doorstep. It’s not just the Yamuna, whose WATER quality is as bad as sewage, but many rivers across the country are reeling under an unprecedented LOADof urban waste and industrial effluents, says a CPCB report.
