COMMENT: The Ganges is one of the most polluted rivers in India; corpses
floating and absolute filth, dogs scavenging on both. People who bath and
drink the water rely on their faith to carry them through!
Excerpt:-
In Varanasi, India's most sacred city, the coliform bacterial count is at
least 3,000 times higher than the standard established as safe by the United
Nations world Health Organization, according to Veer Bhadra Mishra, an
engineer and Hindu priest who's led a campaign there to clean the river for
two decades.
*Coliform* are rod-shaped bacteria that are normally found in the colons of
humans and animals and become a serious contaminant when found in the food
or water supply.
