About the National Seminar
According to Hindu Mythology the river Gomti; one of the major tributary of
river Ganges is daughter of sage Vashistha. It is believed that bathing in the
river Gomti on the 11th day of full moon can wash away one's sin. The river
Gomti originates from Gomat taal which was formally known as Fulhaar jheel
in Pilibhit district of U.P. The river flowing through the districts of Pilibhit,
Shahjahanpur, Jaunpur, Lucknow,Sultanpur, Barabanki, Faizabad and
Ghazipur in Uttar-Pradesh covers a distance of about 730 km before finally
merging in the river Ganga at Ghazipur district about 30 km North of Varanasi.
The total drainage area of the river is about 30437 km2. An average flow rate of
Gomti river is 1500 MLD, however, during the monsoon season it reaches up to
45000 MLD while in summer it falls down to 500 MLD From the years the river
is fulfilling most of the agricultural and domestic water need of the cities
established on its bank. However, during the past few decades the health of the
river Gomti has been deteriorated due to industrial and municipal waste
disposal along the whole stretch of the river. The river receives about 450 MLD
of untreated domestic waste water only from the Lucknow city. In addition,
various miscellaneous sources such as bathing of cattles, washing of clothes,
disposal of flowers and idols etc. also pollute the river. Cumulative increase in
the pollution load of river has caused loss of aquatic biodiversity. Further, the
deterioration in the quality of river water had made it unsuitable for
human/animal consumption and other uses such as irrigation, aquaculture and
recreational activities. Perceiving the threat to the river a Gomti Action Plan
was formulated jointly by the State and Central government in the year 1993 for
3 towns namely Sultanpur, Jaunpur and Lucknow to rejuvenate the river and to
prevent it from further deterioration. Despite several efforts made by both;
Central as well as State Government and various Non-Governmental
Organizations, the river Gomti is still screaming for its revival. This seminar
has been proposed to address the known and hidden issues pertaining to the
pollution of river Gomti. This seminar will sought a collective support from the
scientists, social scientists and industry representatives for the rejuvenation of
river Gomti.
