Hindu Devotees Bathe In Toxic Yamuna River

On November 10th, Hindu devotees gathered on the banks of the hazardously polluted Yamuna river in New Delhi to celebrate Chhath Puja, as the water of the river was covered with toxic foam. The foam is so plentiful that it gives the river the appearance of being covered in snow and ice glaciers. On Chhath Puja, devotees take what is supposed to be a self-cleansing dip in the Ganges River, including its tributary rivers. Unfortunately, the Ganges and its tributaries, including the Yamuna, are some of the most polluted rivers in the world. Factories and other industrial plants are known to dump their waste directly into the river, despite government regulations. Unfazed by health hazards due to the polluted water, some people stood knee-deep, reciting prayers while others submerged themselves completely and drank the water. One devotee told reporters, “What fear? If we are scared, then how can we pray?”
