While millions seek spiritual cleansing in the sacred waters of the Ganges, the stark reality is that human neglect is poisoning the very river meant to purify the soul.

It’s high time we reimagine our relationship with nature—ensuring that our reverence for the divine is matched by a genuine respect for the earth that sustains us.
