Varanasi: Noted environmental scientist and chairman of Mahamana Malaviya Research Centre for Ganga, River Development and Water Resource Management at Banaras Hindu University, Prof. B D Tripathi has urged the government to take immediate measures to find out the sources of microplastic pollution in the Ganga water, as claimed by a study conducted by Delhi-based NGO Toxics Link in collaboration with the National Institute of Oceanography, Goa. The study reportedly claims that the Ganga in Varanasi, Kanpur and Haridwar is polluted with multiple types of plastic. Highest concentration of single-use and secondary plastic products was found in the water at Varanasi. Microplastics are fragments of any type of plastic less than 5mm in length.
