About Ganga Quest

In 2019, the Ganga Quest was started with the aim of sensitizing children and the youth and imparting knowledge about the River Ganga including its historical, physical geography, and cultural significance, the governance structure, biodiversity, current affairs, prior efforts, famous personalities and places, livelihood significance, socio-economic importance, pollution in the river and the various steps being taken to preserve the River. Since its inception, the Ganga Quest has been a successful platform to engage children in the government’s Namami Gange Programme as well as a great learning experience for the people. The quest has been effective in generating interest in the environment, and rivers, and building an informed younger generation sensitive towards the rivers of the nation and their ecosystems.
