Varanasi: The ongoing dredging work in the Ganga on the seven-km stretch between Ramnagar Fort and Malviya rail-road bridge for reducing velocity of water flow that has been eroding the ghats and threatening the historical structures is nearing completion and the second stream is taking final shape.
The piles of sand removed from the Ganga has helped create a sand island that could be used to host various activities, including events like the famous Rann Mahotsava held in Kutch, Gujarat.
The Rs 11.95 crore project is likely to be completed by June 15.
“We had started this project worth Rs 11.95 crores in March. Maximum work of creating a new channel of Ganga stream on the right bank has been completed and the project will be over by June 15. The work done so far has turned the sandbanks between the two channels in an island shape,” said irrigation department’s executive engineer Pankaj Verma, who is supervising the project, while talking to TOI on Monday.
