India is named after the sacred Indus River and has several divine rivers flowing through its land, providing water to all life forms in the nation. Although water pollution has become a big problem, there are still some rivers in India with clean and pristine water that should be protected.
Umngot, or Dawki River, is one of the cleanest rivers in India. It is nestled in the divine hills of Meghalaya and is known for its heavenly, clear water.
The pristine Teesta River originates from the Pahunri glacier in the Eastern Himalayas in Sikkim. The river flows through Sikkim and West Bengal and is one of the major sources of water for the region.
The Chambal River is renowned as a pollution-free river and is home to several Indian wildlife species, such as gharials, freshwater turtles, Gangetic dolphins, and many others.
While some parts of the Brahmaputra River are facing challenges, the vast size and volume of the river help it maintain its pristineness.
The Narmada River is the fifth-largest river in India. It is also known as one of the cleanest rivers and has extremely pure water in some parts.
