Ganga under pressure: pollution
655 million people in the basin
43% of Indian population
Urbanization and industrialization
Agriculture intensification
Higher water use
Massive pollution loads

Class A: water for use as drinking water source without conventional treatment but after disinfection.
Class B: waters for use for organized outdoor bathing.
Class C: Class C waters for use as drinking water source with conventional treatment followed by disinfection.

Ganga under pressure: reduced flow
• Intense water abstractions for agriculture
• Hydel projects mushrooming
• Hundreds of kilometers with no or very
low flows
• Disrupted ecosystems and less capacity
to carry pollution loads

Project component 1:Pollution from small and medium cities in UP
• Why small and medium cities?
50 cities (36 class II, 14 class I)
• Why UP?
Water pollution hotspot
• Why Mugalsharai, Gangaghat and Unnao
Ganga pollution
Political support
No STPs and almost no sewers

• Integrated baseline assessments of the 3 selected cities to
identify challenges and opportunities for pollution prevention
(focus on fecal pollution)
Project component 1: Outputs: Progress and plans
• Stakeholder recommended solutions for pollution
abatement in the 3 selected cities
• Feasibility studies for the most promising solutions
• New entry points for equitable engagement for women and
men in pollution abatement
• Replication potential for the most promising solutions and
effectiveness of such replication

Expected Outcomes from Comp. 1
Support urban authorities to make evidence based city
sanitation plans (and/or urban river management plans)
Support for designing an implementing feasible and
context-specific models for septage and sewage
management
For targeting investments and develop cost-effective
strategies por pollution control
