Solution

The correct option is C To treat water of Ganga river

The Ganga action plan was launched by Rajeev Gandhi, the then Prime Minister of India, on 14 January 1986 with the main objective of pollution abatement, to improve the water quality by interception, diversion and treatment of domestic sewage and present toxic and industrial chemical wastes from identified grossly polluting units entering into the river.
