Each nation considers its rivers as sacred. They are the natural resource of a country and hence determine the economic prowess of the naton!
River Ganga is one of the most important river the national River of the country!
But the mother is becoming the martyr, some because of the unavoidable cirecumstances, beliefs of the people who need it the most and some because of the reckless and the carefree attitude of those around!!

A TRIBUTE.. I come to you as a child to his mother/ I come as an orphan /To you, moist with love/ I come without refuge/ To you, giver of sacred rest/ I come a fallen man/ To you, uplifter of all./ I come undone by disease/ To you the perfect physician/ I come, my heart dry with thirst/ To you, ocean of sweet wine/ Do with me whatever you will."
