Sand mining in Yamuna impacts the environment and livelihood
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 1 окт 2024
- Sand worth billions of rupees is mined from the Yamuna river, considered holy in Hinduism, threatening its ecology. During the COVID-19 lockdown, legal and illegal mining continued in the Yamuna river on the Haryana-Uttar Pradesh border. The local pollution control board officials admitted that the mining in the Yamuna river continued to violate environmental norms.
Sand is a vital ingredient in the river. It is also unsustainably mined to satisfy the construction and infrastructure industry. Excessive mining changes the river's course, aggravates floods, deprives organisms of habitats, affects farmers and fisherfolk, depletes groundwater level, and causes several other ecological hazards.

India’s mineral sector is diverse. From sand to atomic minerals and from coal to limestone, the industry involves the production of over 85 minerals every year, worth trillions of rupees. What are 'just transitions' for people and the environment affected by mining in India? ruclips.net/video/p_rRToWjvDM/видео.html
There are problems but can you please suggest me some practical solutions for these dangers please please didi or dada
Very useful for upsc CSE perspective, excellent job sir , keep it up
the number of likes and comments on this video testify the very fact that how many citizens are actually bothered by such havoc wreaking illegal activities aggravating the environmental degradation and deteriorating the health of our mother earth rapidly
Unfortunate for you. It's the *Necessary* evil.
Unrbanisation and migration is the real problem, please Govt provide jobs to people at their villages so that they use local own resources.
People’s gathering at one place will only benefitted to Industrialists.
People’s mindset of collecting more money in cities will not facilitate sustainable life.
Mining has changed world completely
Correct me if I'm wrong..
Agar ghar ki koi pipeline block hogayi hai, aur pani sahi tareeke se nikal nahi raha hai aur uss wajah se ghar me pani fail raha hai toh uske andar ka jamavda saaf karonge ki nahi..
Jitna sand niklega utna river gehra hoga utna uska water flow badhega..
Problem waha aayega jaha se sand nahi nikala hai. #FLOOD.

Jamuna ka bech ka matti jitna ho sake , utha lena chahiye .
There must be an alternative to this🙏🏽
Instead from banning river sand government should 1st provide a alternative sand solution which is cheaper than river sand.... So that people automatically turn toward that sand which is cheaper.

Great job mongabay
Awesome, 😊👍
I really am not quite understand how this sand mining done any negative impact on the environment except for the crocodile nesting (which should be far away from the residential area). This river mining activity could also be called as river normalization or revitalization. With a wider and deeper river, fish as you mentioned earlier could multiply exponentially, the river could handle more water thus would prevent flood. As for the illegal mining, that is a different problem because they do not follow government rule.
Bro let me tell you one thing if there will be nosand then how are you going to do construction ? .First start living in mud houses then talk about sand mining or find some alternative for it don't just keep on complaining.
It's called M-sand
Seedhe seedhe bolo kuch pata nahi, aise hi bak rha hu
Mining must go on.
Environment gaya bhad me.
