Tura (Meghalaya), May 21: A disturbing image of garbage accumulation in the Ganol River has sparked concerns about the potential harm to the environment, wildlife, and tourism. The garbage, carried by rainwater from the Rangram Bazaar bridge, has collected in the Ganol River Dam, posing a significant threat to the ecosystem.
The Ganol River is home to several beautiful tourist spots, including PELGA Waterfalls, Shela Wari, Wa Wari, and many other tourist attractions. The accumulation of garbage in the river can harm these attractions and affect the local tourism industry.
Moreover, the garbage can pollute the river water, making it unsafe for drinking, fishing, or other uses, and harm aquatic life, including fish and other species that depend on the river for survival.
When garbage is thrown into a river, it causes multiple negative impacts on the environment, wildlife, and human communities. Effective waste management practices and proper garbage disposal are essential to protect the Ganol River and its surrounding ecosystem.
