Part 7/15:
Many individuals have dedicated their lives to the cause of the Ganga's salvation. Swami Sanan in 2018 launched an indefinite hunger strike, fasting for 111 days to demand action against pollution, ultimately sacrificing his life in the process. His martyrdom sparked renewed consciousness about the river's plight. Others, like Swami Shivananda and Swami Atama Bodhanan, have undertaken hunger strikes and protests, emphasizing the spiritual importance of the river and the need for urgent action.
