Today’s Prime Time is about River Ganga and the degrading ecosystem of the state of Uttarakhand from where the river originates. Successive state governments have been callous towards protecting the natural environment and have not declared important regions as eco-sensitive zones. According to reports, the locals have been instigated into protesting against declaring zones in which their homes fall in as eco-sensitive because that would cripple their development. In a gazette notification in 2012, the Centre had declared the stretch of Bhagirathi between Gaumukh and Uttarkashi as eco-sensitive zone or ESZ leading to disagreements between the Centre and the state government.
