Toxic Foam Chokes Sacred Indrayani River in Maharashtra

Toxic Foam Chokes Sacred Indrayani River in Maharashtra

The Indrayani River, a sacred river for many, is very polluted, with dirty water and a lot of foam.

This pollution comes from sewage and waste released into the river.

The government has promised to clean it up, but not much has changed.

Officials are trying to make the cities and towns along the river treat their waste before it goes in.

People worry about getting sick from the water and say the government needs to do more to fix the problem.

The pollution harms the river and also poses a threat to the residents living near the river.

Authorities are working on a cleanup plan to address the situation.
