Mission & Vision

Ever Flowing Pure Ganga

Objective

  • Water is the life-Hence an organized effort to for purity of water and conservation of its bio-diversity.
  • Lok mata Jahnvi- Ganga is Lokmata, so this is to remind and its sons about their duty towards their mother and to encourage them to carry it out.
  • Shrotasmasmi Jahnvi-All water sources in the country are Ganga, so this compaign is to be enlarged to cover all of them.
  • The spirit of “Hum Badlenge,Yug Badlega” is to be inculcated and made participatory  among the public at personal level.
  • Green Cover-Efforts for conservation of environment by dense afforestation in the Ganga region.

Our Concept

Ganga is not merely a river; it is the lifeline of India. Ganga is the pious flow of Indian Culture, Civilization, Philosophy and spiritualism put together. Ganga covers almost half of India and inculcates Godliness amongst people, imbibes culture in each house, grants divinity to its banks and showers bounties before it confers greatness to the sea by joining it. It has been a witness to the origin and development of “Dev Sanskriti” right through its journey from the womb of Himalayas up to its confluence with the sea.
In the present context, it is a matter of grave concern that for the sake of our selfish ends and for blind development, this life line river has been brought virtually to the dead stage. In a Country where oath is taken in the name of Ganga to prove the truth, and a few drops of its water help achieve salvation, we have rendered its water unsuitable for bathing and drinking. Still the affectionate mother Ganga is blessing us by continually flowing, without seeking anything in return. Mother is performing her duty, but what, we her sons, are giving back in return to her? It was our duty to give respect and honour to this river but instead we are throwing our city waste, industrial waste, dirty nala water and dead bodies etc, as if it is a waste bin and not a river. The misbehavior with the mother of our Civilization has become unbearable now. “Akhil Vishv Gayatri Parivar” has launched a country wide Campaign called –“Nirmal Ganga Jan Abhiyan” due to the hurt caused by such actions of ours. 

WorkPlan

FIVE Regions of Mother Ganga-
For the success of the campaign,the entire stretch of 2525 Km of Ganga has been divided in to Five regions as given below-
  1. Bhagirathi Region-Gomukh to Haridwar
  2. Vishvamitra Region-Haridwar to Kanpur
  3. Bhardwaj Region-Kanpur to Benaras
  4. Gautam Region-Benaras to Sultanganj
  5. Ramkrishna Region-Sultanganj to Gangasagar

FIVE stages of the Campaign- 
Keeping in view the diversity and to maintain continuity, the campaign has been divided in five stages-
  1. First-Survey-Detailed survey from Gomukh to Gangasagar
  2. Second-”Ganga Samvad”-(Plight of Ganga)-to be held at the cities and villages situated on banks.
  3. Third- “Ganga Amrit Kumbh” public awareness Campaign(Foot march for awareness, cleanliness, green cover, and tree plantation)
  4. Fourth- Cooperation movement- For People’s Cooperation in following rules and law.
  5. Five-Continuous efforts for purification and conservation for Ten years-Devotion

Managing polluted water source-Pure and ever flowing Ganga:- It is not possible to make Ganga clean unless the water sources of its tributaries are totally purified. Therefore it is important to organize small campaigns at regional level on the tributaries of Ganga.
  • Purification of nearby source of water for the tributaries by “Bhagirathi Jalabhishek”.
  • Use of Right to Information (RTI) and Public Interest Litigation (PIL). 
  • To keep in progress all efforts with full devotion and vigor for Ten years so that these works form habit of the people at large.

An Appeal

Personal appeal to Ganga Putras

Do’s
  • Convert stale offered flowers and other Poojan material to manure.

  • Use toilets for natures call

If we do not get awakened now then separation from mother Ganga is going to cost us dearly

Mother Ganga is pitiful and is bearing the onslaught but due to her sorrow nature is getting angry. It is in our interest that before it is too late and we face the fury of nature, we get awakened as a good son carry out our duty towards our mother. 


Sankalp (Pledge to Ganga)

Let us take pledge in the name of Ganga that-

We will not pollute Ganga through our house, city, villages, institutions, Ashrams and will not allow others also to do it.The water polluted by us will be purified.We will return purity of divine Ganga
