The West Garo Hills district administration has begun the operation to clean-up the Ganol River, where trash is being dumped indiscriminately, especially from the Rongram market upstream. The administration sprang into action when heavy rains brought all the waste from upstream to the Ganol Hydroelectric project’s dam downstream. The operation duration is 72 hours, depending on the weather.

If the summer this year was sweltering for Garo Hills, reaching almost 40 degrees and many hoped for rains to arrive early, but the monsoon this year has arrived with such rage that it has hardly been respite.
