status in

16. Water Pollution status
in Arunachal Pradesh-
• The rivers flowing through Arunachal
Pradesh have been considered to be
clean and uncontaminated in the
past. However, few studies indicated
that these rivers are now getting
polluted due to domestic, industrial
and agricultural wastes. ... During
wet season the river also receives
pollution from agricultural land.

17. Water Pollution status
in Meghalaya-
• On average 43% of water bodies are
polluted. The highest percentage of
pollution is found in the Jaintia region
followed by Khasi and Garo regions.
The figure is alarming for a small
state and calls for an urgent need for
sensitization of the community to take
immediate steps to mitigate the
situation.
