    YEARS OF Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs CELEBRATING Government of India THE MAHATMA 9 4237 Cities 6.53 Lakh Survey Locations Impacting 43 Crore Lives World’s largest cleanliness survey I Years of Celebrating The Mahatma II III IV V Vinod Kumar Jindal Years of Celebrating The Mahatma Message from the Chairman, Karvy First of all, I would like to express my deep gratitude to the Swachh Bharat Mission (Urban), Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs for entrusting Karvy Data Management Services Limited with conducting the Swachh Survekshan two years in a row. I sincerely hope we have been able to C. Parthasarathy live up to expectations. Chairman, Swachh Survekshan 2019 posed a unique challenge in the Karvy Data Management history of survey research in India, requiring us to complete Services Limited on-ground assessment across 4237 Urban Local Bodies and Cantonment Boards in a mere 28 days. The final scoring and ranking was to be completed in a further 15 days. I am extremely proud of the fact that a team of over 4500 assessors on the ground and nearly 500 people at the back end worked tirelessly to deliver the project without any time overrun or compromise on quality. However, such an effort would not have been possible without the constant guidance and support we received from the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs and the spirit of cooperation and support that we received from State Mission Directors and ULB nodal officers. We are truly grateful for the time and interest invested by them in helping us achieve such an Swachh Survekshan ambitious target.

Path to Trilokinath. Tempera on Canvas. Nicholas Roerich Museum, New York, USA.’ November 2016 Material from this publication can be used, with acknowledgment to the source. Introduction The lifelines of Himalayas A massive collision between two tectonic plates of the Indian and Eurasian land masses about 50 to 70 million years ago led to the formation of the youngest and tallest mountain ranges, the Himalayas. Once the Himalayas started to rise, a southward drainage developed which subsequently controlled the climate of the newly formed continent, and there started the season of monsoon as well. The river systems of the Himalayas thus developed because of rains and melting snow. The newly formed rivers were like sheets of water flowing towards the fore-deep carrying whatever came in their way. Once the rivers reached the plains their gradients became lesser, their hydraulics changed and they started to deposit their sediment (Priyadarshi, 2016). The river is a defining feature of a mountain eco-system. And if that ecosystem is the Himalayas then this makes the rivers originating here special for several reasons. Their origin and source to start with, which includes glaciers and snow bound peaks; their length and size, and the area they cover is larger than most peninsular rivers; their rapid, high velocity, meandering flow which is constantly shaping the young and malleable Himalayan valleys; their propensity to carry silt and form rich plains to facilitate a fertile agriculture downstream is another unique feature.
