ANSWERED ON 04.08.2016

## MODERNISATION OF CREMATORIUMS UNDER NAMAMI GANGE MISSION

## 3017. SHRIMATI  RAKSHATAI KHADSE

Will  the  Minister  of  WATER  RESOURCES,  RIVER  DEVELOPMENT  AND  GANGA REJUVENATION be pleased to state:

(a) whether the Government proposes to modernise crematoriums on Ganga river ghats under the Namami Gange Mission, if so, the details thereof;

(b)  whether  the  Government  proposes  to  develop  woodless  crematoriums  thereunder  to  save trees and conserve Nature; and

(c) if so, the details thereof?

## ANSWER

THE MINISTER OF STATE (IC) FOR YOUTH AFFAIRS & SPORTS AND MINISTER OF STATE FOR WATER RESOURCES, RIVER DEVELOPMENT AND GANGA REJUVENATION (SHRI VIJAY GOEL)

(a) to (c)  Yes, Madam. Modernization of crematoria is one of the components under the Entry Level activities identified under the Namami  Gange Programme. The Government is recommending  for 'Improved Wood  Based  Crematoria' (IWC)  in place of traditional crematoria. 'Improved Wood Based Crematoria (IWC) operates in a traditional manner on wood only.  However,  it  is  capable  of  saving  wood  up  to  50-60%  as  compared  to  the  conventional method  through  incorporation  of  specially  designed  elevated  pyre  equipped  with  a  hood  and chimney to improve combustion efficiency and minimize wastage of heat. The wood is placed on the metal base, which enables better air circulation around the flames. On an average 200 to 250 kg of wood is consumed and the time for burning is around 3-4 hours per cremation. It enables users to perform all important rituals associated with the cremation process. Thus, besides being environment-friendly and fuel-efficient IWC is a method acceptable user.

Electric crematoria may also be developed as per the local acceptance and towns/ cities where uninterrupted electricity is available.

Five  Central  Public  Sector  Units,  namely,  WAPCOS,  EIL,  NBCC,  NPCC,  EPIL  have  been recently engaged to carry out the work on Condition Assessment & Feasibility Study and Entry Level  activities  under  Namami  Gange  Programme  in  their  respective  river  stretches  in Uttarakhand,  UP,  Bihar,  Jharkhand  and  West  Bengal.  They  have  surveyed  59  towns  and identified 369 crematoria for up-gradation/construction. 64 crematoria have been recommended by the Empowered Steering Committee (ESC) till date.
