Haridwar's Garbage Crisis After Kanwar Yatra
Haridwar is grappling with a massive waste management issue following the conclusion of the annual Kanwar Yatra. An estimated 7,000 metric tonnes of garbage, including plastic bottles and human waste, have accumulated across ghats, mela grounds, parking areas, and routes. The city is now preparing for a 'mega clean-up' operation to tackle this environmental challenge.9 sourcesSee all sources
