The Unthinkable Might Happen River Ganga May Dry Up As Heat Wave Scorches India


The River Ganga is drying up as temperatures continue to rise across the country. Locals in Allahabad, where Yamuna and the mythical river Saraswati meets Ganga at Prayag, expressed their concern over the falling water-level of the Ganga amid worsening heat wave conditions.



"Today, the condition is such that there is no water in the river. People can easily walk and cross the river from one end to another. The water level has become so less that it is a matter of concern for all of us. We are extremely worried as Prayag is losing is importance. On seeing such a condition, people too are worried," said a local, Mohan Lal.
