>10 October, 2006

>A shocked and surprised Supreme Court silently heard the central
>government's counsel expressing his inability to assist the Court as
>he had no instructions in the case of Ganga Action Plan aimed at
>cleansing the holy river.
>
>Counsel for the government Vijay Panjwani told the bench headed by
>Chief Justice Y K Sabhrawal that he intended to withdraw from the
>case as he could not make excuses everytime before the court.
>
>Taking serious note of the callous and casual attitude of the
>government, the court in its order said "this matter relates to
>implementation of Ganga Action Plan, the object of which was to
>improve water quality of the Ganga River." The Court also took note
>of the statement of Mr Panjwani that he has no instructions from the
>Ministry of Environment and Forests.
>
>The court also took serious note of the failure of three states of
>Uttar Pradesh, Bihar and West Bengal and the Centre none of which
>have filed the affivadit as per the orders dated March 31, seeking
>details of the steps taken to clean the holy river.
>
>Other judges on the bench were Justices C K Thakker and R V
>Raveendran.
>
>The court also took note of the report of Comptroller and Auditor
>General of India (CAG) for the year 2006 which said there was
>massive diversion of public funds released for the implementation of
>Ganga Action Plan.
>
>Amicus Curi Krishan Mahajan informed the court that Rs 900 crore of
>public funds have gone down the drain and the quality of Ganga water
>has further deteriorated to the extent of making it unfit for human
>consumption. He also requested the court to issue notice to the
>Planning Commission which is the main authority for releasing funds
>for various projects.
>
>He also informed the court that only 45 per cent of the industrial
>units discharging chemical effluents in the Ganga river have set up
>effluent treatment plants. Most of them were either not working or
>not meeting the required standards.
