Ganges River - An Introduction

The Ganga, especially, is the river of India, beloved of her people, round which are intertwined her memories, her hopes and fears, her songs of triumph, her victories and her defeats. She has been a symbol of India's age-long culture and civilization, ever changing, ever flowing, and yet ever the same Ganga.

- Jawaharlal Nehru, First Prime Minister of India, born in Allahabad on the Ganges.

that is disgusting, you have to be a pig to go near that water...but of course its a religion thing, so of course they would bathe in shit if their gods said is would make them feel special inside.

can't believe its 2011 and people actually do this. we have a long way to go.

India is a great country, but seriously.

@zoltron30 yeah right, go on with your preaching. it is the absolute truth..so many other religions all say the SAME exact thing.

@Mrbeautiez HA. how can you say that about a river? have you even been close to one? whatever it is, it is the driving force of millions of people, only modern times have people started recklessly polluting it..just take a look at its upper courses as it descends from the Himalayas.
