Ganga River Basin: 907,000 sq km; Nepal, India and Bangladesh Covering 11 States in IndiaGanga River Basin and the River GangaBhagirathi originates from the ice caves at Gaumukh (N 3055, E 797) at an elevation of 4100 m. Alaknanda, originates U/S of Badrinath (N 3044, E 7941) at an altitude of 3123 m.These two meet at Devprayag.

Upper Ganga Segment (UGS)
294 km UP to Rishikesh in Hilly Terrain
September 26-29, 2011Brisbane, AustraliaPreparation of GANGA RIVER BASIN ENVIRONMENT MANAGEMENT PLANDr Vinod TareINDIA
Upper Ganga Segment (UGS)Flows on steep and narrow bed, mostly rocks and boulders.Carries cold water, is subjected to much less anthropogenic pollution.Has highly sensitive and fragile ecosystem and biodiversity, andMost importantly considered to have potential for harnessing hydropower.

Middle and Lower Ganga Segment (UGS)Middle Ganga 1071 km Rishikesh to VaranasiLower Ganga 1145 km Varanasi to Ganga Sagar
September 26-29, 2011Brisbane, AustraliaPreparation of GANGA RIVER BASIN ENVIRONMENT MANAGEMENT PLANDr Vinod TareINDIA
Middle Ganga Segment (MGS)Enters and flows in plains, meandering mostly on bed of fine sand.Has wide river bed and flood plain, and Most importantly modified through human interventions in terms of huge quantities of water diversion/abstraction and subjected to high degree of pollutant loads from domestic, industrial and agricultural activities.
September 26-29, 2011Brisbane, AustraliaPreparation of GANGA RIVER BASIN ENVIRONMENT MANAGEMENT PLANDr Vinod TareINDIA
Lower Ganga Segment (LGS)River has experienced considerable changes in the sediment transport and deposition.Causes wide spread flooding.Undergoes frequent changes in her channel path, and Most importantly is subjected to international disputes on flows and interventions made and/or are being carried out/planned.

MoA between IITs (MHRD) & MoEF forPreparing Ganga River Basin Environment Management Plan(GRB EMP)
September 26-29, 2011Brisbane, AustraliaPreparation of GANGA RIVER BASIN ENVIRONMENT MANAGEMENT PLANDr Vinod TareINDIA
Our MandatePrepare GRB-EMP which will restore Wholesomeness of the River Ganga
September 26-29, 2011Brisbane, AustraliaPreparation of GANGA RIVER BASIN ENVIRONMENT MANAGEMENT PLANDr Vinod TareINDIA
BeliefThe qualities of the Ganga water are:
Coolness, sweetness, transparency, high tonic property, wholesomeness, potability, ability to remove evils, ability to resuscitate from swoon caused by dehydration, digestive property and ability to retain wisdom
September 26-29, 2011Brisbane, AustraliaPreparation of GANGA RIVER BASIN ENVIRONMENT MANAGEMENT PLANDr Vinod TareINDIA
ChallengeGrowing population, urbanization, industrialization and agriculture
Continuously flow ( )Un-polluted Flow ( )
Protecting the river systemLongitudinal, lateral and vertical connectivityAdequate space for various river functionsEcological entityAdequate provision of soil, water and energy

Can not afford to Experiment with River Like Ganga!Precautionary Principles must apply wherever knowledge gaps and uncertainties exist
Apply modern science and new technologies but with traditional wisdomGyan Dhara + Jana Gyan

"Environmental Flows are a regime of flow in a river or stream that describes the temporal and spatial variation in quantity and quality of water required for freshwater as well as estuarine systems to perform their natural ecological functions (including sediment transport) and support the spiritual, cultural and livelihood activities that depend on these ecosystems"Environmental Flows or E-Flows
