Under the Namami Gange project, the state government, which has succeeded in reducing the pollution level of river Ganga in Sahebganj and Rajmahal of Jharkhand to the minimum level, has now started work towards making the flow of Damodar River uninterrupted and pollution free. Under the National Mission for Clean Ganga of the Government of India, the initiative has been taken to clean the Damodar River flowing in Jharkhand. For this, the water of all the drains and other water bodies of Dhanbad, Ramgarh and Phusro municipal bodies will be allowed to flow into the Damodar River only after purifying them from STPs. Plans for construction of sewerage treatment plants have been approved in all these municipal bodies, said Amit Kumar, director of the State Urban Development Agency, while speaking at a tenderers meet jointly organized by the Jharkhand Government’s Urban Development and Housing Department and the Central Government’s National Clean Ganga Mission.
