3.2.1 Disposal of sewage water in gully
With developments in form of urbanization, waste waters have been directly disposed off in rivers and gully, the lowest elevation in the vicinity. For reclamation of polluted water different action program have been launched, where in only sewage treatment plants have been constructed. It was observed whatever reclamation effect brought out by such measures get overshadowed by increase in waste water load, hence it were not showing noticeable impact.
The lock down during COVID 19 pandemic for over three month created self cleansing of rivers. This led to conclusion that the river systems should be made free of any dropping of waste water. For this a new approach was developed to divert waterwater in disposal channel and form a pool such as wetland and make the fresh water in rivers as well as gullies free from pollution. Such innovative scheme was depicted vide Fig 2. Further innovative advancement in this direction will follow.
