Trash Rack Installation Planned for Ghaggar River Waste Control
Imagine a big strainer being placed in the Ghaggar River to catch all the trash.
This strainer, called a trash rack, will stop things like plastic and branches from flowing downstream.
The government is paying for it because people have been throwing trash in the river, which makes it dirty.
The new trash rack is expected to be a more effective and sustainable solution, and it's meant to last a long time with easy maintenance.
Everyone hopes it will help clean up the river and make it a better place.
A trash rack will be installed in the Ghaggar river near Majri Chowk bridge.
The Haryana State Pollution Control Board (HSPCB) has provided Rs 52.27 lakh for the project.
The project aims to reduce pollution caused by waste in the river.
Residents and environmental activists have welcomed the decision.
The trash rack is designed for long-term impact and easier maintenance.
