Congress MP Vijayajkumar also known as Vijay Vasanth on Friday gave an adjournment motion notice in Lok Sabha and requested discussion on directing the Ganga River towards Kanyakumari, ANI reported.
"I hereby give notice for the adjournment motion on the subject of the proposal to channel the Ganga River toward Kanyakumari and its potential benefits for flood control, irrigation, and groundwater recharge. The Ganga River is one of India's most significant water resources, and Kanyakumari, as the southernmost point of India, is of immense geographical and cultural importance. While the idea of the Ganga flowing to Kanyakumari may initially seem symbolic, it holds practical implications that need to be explored for the betterment of the country," Vijayakumar stated in a notice, ANI cited.
