Description:
A procession has been organized to save the Jalangi river, an initiative of the students of the Tehatta region with the support of "Jalangi Nodi bachao committee" (Save the Jalangi River). There they performed self-composed river awareness-based dance, songs, recitations, plays and at the end lighting earthen lamps. Once Jalangi was a full-flowing river but now the river is full of sediments and has lost its depth. The river is breaking its side portions every day. The intense pressure of growing populations, industrialization, unrestricted excavation and unplanned development is seriously showing in terms of both quality and quantity of water the rivers provide. Jalangi River is currently in danger. Tehatta, West Bengal, India.
