“Mother Ganga: A Juristic Person”, Kanooni Patrika, August 2017

Here is a front page story published in Hindi in the #KanooniPatrika (Newspaper of Law) which talks about the inspiring work that is being carried out under Pujya Swami Chidanand Saraswatiji – Muniji’s leadership to restore and rejuvenate the River Ganga to its free-flowing and pristine state. It highlights The Global Interfaith WASH Alliance (GIWA) and Ganga Action Parivar’s “Ganga Rights” campaign, that is pushing for comprehensive legislation that would grant Ganga the same rights as a human being and where polluting Her would be a punishable offence. The story also highlights Sadhvi Bhagawati Saraswatiji’s inspiring story and divine example of how she came to the banks of Mother Ganga and has dedicated her life, for more than twenty years, in the service of her Guru and Mother Ganga.
