The document discusses water pollution issues in Varanasi, India. Specifically, it notes that Varanasi is highly dependent on the Ganges River for its water supply, but the river is heavily polluted from waste, corpses, and religious practices. This poses major health risks to those who bathe in and drink the river's water. Several efforts have been made to clean up the Ganges through programs like the Ganges Action Plan, but untreated sewage continues to be a major source of pollution.
According to the UN report, The population of India expected to surpass China and become the largest country in population size by 2022.
Water-related challenges including water scarcity and water quality deterioration where the pace of urbanization is fastest and the local governments have limited capacity to deal with the rising water supply and sanitation challenges.
Industrial growth is completely related to the addition of a large number of toxic pollutants that are harmful to the environment, hazardous to human health.

Domestic Liquid Waste Purification and Recyclingijtsrd
Rapid industrialization and urbanization subsequently brought many variations in the environment and ecosystems in the world, as a result there is proportionate increase in the domestic waste generation in India. Growth of urban areas, increase pressure on local water supplies. Already, usage of groundwater aquifers by over half of the world population are being over drawn, as a result, it is no longer advisable to use water once and dispose of it, so reuse and recycling of water is must. For formulating a sustainable water policy, a reliable source of water such as Recycled water should be taken into account. Recycling and reuse of water should be made obligatory to reduce the huge pressure on demand of fresh water. Waste water from water intensive activities should be recycled and reused and make the reclaimed water available for use in the secondary activities either within or outside the locality, resulting in saving lot of water. The total quantity of water used by the domestic sections is much less than that for irrigation. However, the liquid waste released from the domestic sections has a huge amount of pollutants and is discharged at specific disposal points. Thus, the purification of liquid waste generated from domestic projects is of much more importance. The quantity of organic matter in liquid waste is of great importance due to its polluting potential. The availability of oxygen for fish and other aquatic organisms can be reduced due to direct discharge of this matter into water bodies. Here comes the Purification and Recycling of domestic liquid waste into picture. Water recycling, also referred to as water reuse or water reclamation, is an effective method of treating captured or conveyed wastewater and redistributing it to benefit other water dependent applications. Unlike traditional approaches where water is merely discharged as waste after use, water recycling provides a reliable local water supply, helping improve water conservation, cut energy use and costs, minimize diversions from local water bodies, and prevent water pollution 1 . The objective of this work is to study about domestic liquid waste i.e. sewage its purification and recycling. With the help of some case studies this paper gives information about the processes and various units of purification and how the waste water is recycled after getting treated and its application.

TE_Seminar Report_Water Pollution of Ganga river_19151029(1).pdfSHUBHAMSAWANT87
The Ganga is an important River both from a socio economic and religous view point. However,
it was being polluted by domestic and industrial activities along its banks. The Ganga Action Plan
was initiated in 1986 to clean up the River and protect it from further pollution. The Ganges
provides ecosystem services which are of vital importance for the inhabitants of the Ganges River
basin. However, the water quality of the Ganga River deteriorates downstream. Indian cities, e.g.,
Kanpur, Allahabad, Patna, and Varanasi, are local hotspots of pollution and poor water quality.
Downstream of these cities the river’s water quality improves, but never restores to its original
state. This study in order to stimulate future discussions and actions on improving the water quality
and ecology of the Ganga River. The first objective of this study is to assess the impact of urban
activity on Ganges water quality and to identify and quantify major pollution sources into the
Ganges. The second objective included the search for an existing biotic index which can analyze
Ganges ecological status. The main result of this study to provide an overview and trend of the
water quality of Ganga River, which can be used for future development plans of the Ganga River
and if we ignore this then we have to face revealed alarmingly high levels of nutrient- and organic
pollution in the Ganges.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2. Safe drinking water and sanitation services are common issues in most
rapidly growing developing cities. Varanasi is no exception; however, the
situation in Varanasi is different compared to the ones of other cities at a
similar development stage. Varanasi’s water supply is highly dependent on
the Ganga, which is considered to be sacred and purifying by the Hindus.
Immersion and ablution in its water are daily procedures for the
inhabitants as well for the numerous pilgrims. Every day, around 60,000
people take a holy dip in the Ganga in Varanasi. Furthermore, religious
practices, such as burning of corpses, aggravate the pollution of the river.
This extreme focus of daily life along the river makes Varanasi’s water
situation more unique but also more urgent than in other cities (Mishra
2005).

4. During the last century the city spread in a rather unpleaanned way. The lack
of a strong coordinating body resulted in serious deficits in the field of large
infrastructures such as drainage and sewerage systems. Consequently, the
capacity of the old sewers exceeded and the city’s sewage and industrial waste
flow into the Ganga, polluting the river heavily. Today, the largest part of the
sewage, industrial effluent, run-off from chemical fertilizers and pesticides
used in agriculture and huge quantities of solid waste are dumped in the
Ganga untreated. Even thousands of animal carcasses and hundreds of
human corpses are thrown into the river every day contributing to the
pollution (cf. e.g. Jaiswal 2007; Mishra 2005). The problem of pollution is
further intensified by over-extraction and diversion of the river water (Jaiswal
2007).
5. The pollution of the Ganga presents a severe
health hazard, in particular for those who bathe in
the river and drink its water. In their study, Pandey
et al. (2005) found out that the Ganga water
pollution has a very significant effect on
occurrence of enteric diseases in Varanasi city. In
particular the concentration of Nitrate, Chloride
and Faecal coliforms in the river water has a major
effect on water-borne diseases. The result of this
study indicates that the drinking water may cause
enteric diseases even if the raw Ganga water is
treated properly. One possible explanation is that
contamination could take place due to seepage of
old supply pipelines (Pandey et al. 2005).
6. Many efforts to clean-up the holy Ganga were undertaken during the last decades.
The most comprehensive was The Ganga Action Plan (GAP). The GAP was an
ambitious program, prepared by the Department of Environment and approved by
the Cabinet in 1985, in order to reduce the pollution of the Ganga. It was launched at
Varanasi in June 1986 (Jaiswal 2007). The objectives of the GAP were to abate
pollution and to improve the river water quality by interception, diversion and
treatment of domestic sewage and control of non-point, non-measurable pollution
from human defecation, dumping of dead bodies etc. (CAG 2000). To achieve these
objectives the GAP took up core and non-core schemes. Actions addressed to major,
direct causes of pollution were identified as core sector schemes, consisting of
interception, and diversion schemes of domestic wastewater and sewage treatment
plants. Non-core sector schemes consisted of actions such as implementation of low
cost sanitation systems, installation of crematoria and riverfront development (CAG
2000). In Varanasi five sewage pumps were installed to intercept sewage flowing into
the Ganga from 30 point sources (Mishra 2005).

7. A 2007 study finds that discharge of untreated sewage is single
most important cause for pollution of surface and ground water
in India. There is a large gap between generation and treatment
of domestic waste water in India. The problem is not only that
India lacks sufficient treatment capacity
but also that the sewage treatment plants
that exist do not operate and are not
maintained
8. The majority of the government-owned sewage treatment plants
remain closed most of the time due to improper design or poor
maintenance or lack of reliable electricity supply to operate the
plants, together with absentee employees and poor management.
The wastewater generated in these areas normally percolates in
the soil or evaporates. The uncollected wastes accumulate in the
urban areas cause unhygienic conditions and release pollutants
that leaches to surface and groundwater.[1]
A 1992 World Health Organization study is claimed to have
reported that out of India's 3,119 towns and cities, just 209 have
partial sewage treatment facilities, and only 8 have full
wastewater treatment facilities.[2] Downstream, the untreated
water is used for drinking, bathing, and washing. A 1995 report
claimed 114 Indian cities were dumping untreatedsewage and
partially cremated bodies directly into the Ganges
River.[3] Open defecation is widespread even in urban areas of
India.[4][5] This situation is typical of India as well as other
developing countries.
9. It has also led to the spread of diseases in such away that when wastes like
broken bottles and these are dumped anywhere, they collect water in them
(when it rains) and this may become a breeding ground for mosquitoes.
Wastes like human stool cause diseases when poorly dumped, as the flies
will carry the germ from the stool.
It can also lead to human injury. For example, when a person is walking and
steps on the broken bottles or nails or even pins (shape objects), he can get
injured which may lead to bleeding. (normal these waste shape objects are
infected with germs)
Uncontrolled damping of solid waste can lead to wastage of land where we
find lots of land being used as damping sites for wastes. These same pieces
of land are later on neglected by the inhabitants of the area.
Poor waste management can be a source of under development around the
societies surrounding that particular area. This ca cause harm to tourist
10.
11. Not only humans but the water pollution have a big effect on
animals and other life on earth. Water which is most important
resources for every one including animals should be keep like
something rely precious but no one do like this That is why it is
not hard to see any river, lake or other water body which is not
polluted And thus animals who can not get pure water like us
through filters and clean water facility from storage tanks Have
to drink it even it is good or not so they got ill and some rely
serious deceases Normally they can not get proper health
facility so they die .The aquatic life on earth is also suffering
because of this as when oil or other waste got mistakenly
aflowed on water the life in seas die due to lack of o2 .
