Stating that allriversin Nadu are in the ICU as they do not have a right to life due to encroachments and pollution, water conservationist and environmentalist and waterman of India, Rajendra Singh said that the State Government should take steps to revive them.
Every river has three kinds of rights – right to land, environmental flow and cleanliness. As per the right of land, it should only be used by the rivers. Every river has three kinds of land parcels – river flow zone, flood zone and heavy flood zone. But all these land parcels are encroached. All the waterbodies in the state including rivers, tanks and ponds in the state are encroached with the help of the government.
