Ban on bathing in Ganga is lifted

Muzaffarnagar: The ban on bathing in river Ganga, where thousands of dead fish were found floating, has been officials said.

District authorities had imposed the ban earlier this week after thousands of dead fish were found floating in the river at Shukratal in the district due to chemical effluent discharged by some factories.

A case was registered against factories in Uttarakhand for discharging poisonous water in the river.
