"River Ganga is revered by millions across the nation and it is part of our civilisation. The NGT has noted in its judgement on Ganga that Rs 7304 crore have been spent on Ganga cleaning. "The amount spent on cleaning of Ganga has gone waste. There is definitely more money spent than Rs 7,000 crore as every authority has spent money on cleaning of the river. If all the directions are complied with it definitely improve quality of water in the river," the lawyer said.
