National Mission for Clean Ganga celebrates Ganga Utsav every year to mark the anniversary of the announcement of River Ganga as the National River on 4th November.
This year’s River Festival celebrated not just River Ganga but all the rivers across the country.
Activities were held across 150 districts, 112 in the Ganga belt and the remaining along other major rivers.
This year, the aim was to take Ganga Utsav to the various river basins in India and promote the celebration of the River Festival. It was highlighted by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on the occasion of World River Day on 26th September this year in order to connect with the traditions which are associated with rivers for centuries in the country.
