There are a variety of reasons due to which the government has been slow in the cleanup efforts of the India’s Ganges River, which is a vital natural resource and is thought to be highly contaminated. Firstly the people of India believe that the Ganges is a holy river and it cannot be contaminated. Secondly with several industries coming up around the river banks the government is completely at fault for not committing themselves towards the cleaning of this holy river.

The slow cleanup of the Ganges River is influenced by cultural beliefs surrounding its holiness, significant pollution from industrial sources, population pressure, economic concerns, limited financial resources, and institutional challenges within the government. These factors complicate the implementation of effective cleanup strategies. Addressing these issues requires a multifaceted approach involving collaboration between the government, industries, and communities.
