The life and activities around these ghats along the river Ganga are different to each other. Through this walking, we shall explore a number of ghats including the flower market, Mullick ghat, Baboo ghat and some more. We shall share the history of these areas, watch the activities, take photographs and enjoy. Unfortunately, the ghats are the main sources of pollution in the river and a matter of serious concern. It has been observed that people using these ghats are not much aware of. Thus, we shall discuss and share our ideas to prevent the hazards.
