## ANSWER

## THE MINISTER OF STATE FOR JAL SHAKTI ( SHRI BISHWESWAR TUDU )

(a)  to  (c) The  Hon'ble  National  Green  Tribunal  (NGT) has issued directions, among others, for ensuring water quality and e-flow in the rivers, vide order/judgement dated 10.12.2015 and 13.07.2017 in Original Application (OA) 200 of 2014 and vide order dated 20.09.2018 in OA No. 673 of 2018.

Hon'ble NGT in its orders in Original Application No. 673 of 2018,  directed all State and Union Territory (UT)  Governments  concerned  to  implement  Action  Plans  approved  by  task  team  of  Central  Pollution Control  Board  (CPCB)  for  rejuvenation/  restoration  of  polluted  river  stretches  (PRS)  falling  in  category priority  I  to  priority  IV.  All  concerned  State/  UT  Governments  were  directed  to  ensure  execution  of approved action plans by 30.06.2021 for bringing all the polluted river stretches identified by CPCB fit for bathing purpose (i.e Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) < 3 milligram/litre, Dissolved Oxygen more than 5.0  mg/l  and  Feacal  Coliform  <  500MPN/100ml).   River  Rejuvenation  Committees  (RRCs)  have  been constituted by State/UT Governments for preparation and implementation of approved action plan for PRS falling in category priority V, and a Central Monitoring Committee (CMC) has been constituted at Central level to monitor progress of implementation.

Pursuant to the orders of Hon'ble NGT in OA No. 673 of 2018, CMC meetings are held on a regular basis  under  the  chairmanship  of  Secretary,  Department  of  Water  Resource,  River  Development  &  Ganga

Rejuvenation, Ministry of Jal Shakti, wherein implementation of approved action plans formulated by the concerned States/ UTs are reviewed.

(d) to (f) CPCB in association with  State Pollution Control Boards (SPCBs) / Pollution Control Committees (PCCs) in different  States/Union  Territories  (UTs),  have  been  monitoring  the  water  quality  of  rivers  and other water bodies across the country through a network of monitoring stations under the National Water Quality Monitoring Programme. Based on water quality monitoring results, pollution assessment of rivers has been carried out by CPCB from time to time. As per the last report published by CPCB in September 2018,  351  polluted  stretches  were  identified  on  323  rivers  based  on monitoring  results  in  terms  of  Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD), an indicator of organic pollution. State/UT wise details of polluted river stretches are at Annexure .

Out of total 351 PRS in the country, 53 PRS were identified in the State of Maharashtra. These include 9 stretches in priority I, 6 in priority II, 14 in priority III, 10 in priority IV and 14 in priority V.

NRCP has so far covered 78 polluted stretches on 36 rivers in 80 towns spread over 16 States in the country with  the  sanctioned  cost  of  projects  as  Rs.6248.16  crore,  and  sewage  treatment  capacity  of  2745.7  MLD created.  Under  Namami  Gange  programme, 406 projects,  including  176  projects  for  sewage  treatment  of 5270 MLD and a sewer network of 5214 km, have been sanctioned at a cost of Rs.32898 crore against which sewerage treatment capacity of 1858 MLD has been created so far.

In  addition,  sewerage  infrastructure  is  created  under  programs  like  Atal  Mission  for  Rejuvenation  &  Urban Transformation (AMRUT) and Smart Cities Mission of Ministry of Housing & Urban Affairs.

Steps taken by the Government to stop discharge of industrial effluents into rivers inter alia, include issuance of  notification  of  specific   discharge  standards,  revision  of  the  criteria  for  categorization  of  industries  and issuing  directions to all SPCBs/ PCCs to adopt the same, issuance of consent to establish/consent to operate by the SPCBs/PCCs, based on Comprehensive Environment Pollution Index (CEPI) critically polluted areas are identified to take necessary measures through time-targeted Action Plans, regular inspections of Grossly Polluting Industries (GPIs) by CPCB for compliance verification, installation of Online Continuous Effluent Monitoring  System  (OCEMS)  for  assessment  of  effluent  quality  and  compliance  status.  In  addition,  the industries are encouraged to reduce their waste water generation by technological advancement, reuse/recycle of wastewater and maintain Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) where ever possible.

As  per  the  provisions  of  Environment  (Protection)  Act,  1986  and   Water  (Prevention  &  Control  of Pollution), Act 1974, industrial units are required to install effluent treatment plants (ETPs) and treat their effluents to comply with stipulated environmental standards before discharging into river and water bodies. Accordingly, CPCB, SPCBs and PCCs monitor industries with respect to effluent discharge standards and take punitive action for non-compliance under provisions of these Acts.

Cleaning of river is a continuous process. A number of sewerage infrastructure projects have been completed in  a  time  bound  manner  in  the  years  2020-22.  Improvement  in  water  quality  of  identified  rivers  is  being reported by several States.
