Every year, devotees gather on the #Yamuna’s banks for Chhath Puja, offering prayers amidst the toxic #foam that blankets the river. Sharat from our team captured this stark juxtaposition of devotion and pollution, documenting the paradox of faith performed in a polluted river. While the Yamuna flows just 54 km through #Delhi, the 22 km stretch from #Wazirabad to #Okhla—less than 2% of its length—bears a staggering 76% of the city’s pollution load.

Having been involved with the Maharashtra Government's scheme - Gaalmukt Dharan Gaalyukt Shivar since its launch in 2017, I’ve witnessed firsthand the profound impact it has had on communities, reinforcing my belief that successful programs must be built from ground up with active community ownership. Government involvement is key to enabling scale, ensuring resources and support reach those who need them most. For me personally in my work, transitioning from on-ground implementation support to building tech infrastructure has been an enriching learning curve, offering insights into scalability and sustainability. The most fulfilling part of this journey has been supporting individuals like Ashok and Subhash and many more, whose resilience and determination inspire me to continue contributing to impactful change in the years ahead. Thank you India Water Portal for this opportunity and the team at A.T.E. Chandra Foundation for all the support! :) https://lnkd.in/dq2C5vAY
