Pristine & Pure is what the Ganga & Yamuna were....now polluted to a point of no return. Pity when will we Learn ??

With increase in population it is difficult. The moral and instinct of cleanliness must come from within. Every individual must regard the world outside home as an extension of their property.

I've traced some of Fraser's travels and found quite a few places substantially unchanged. For example, the temple at Manan still stands the way it did in Fraser's time though the wood has been painted over.
