Further along the Kahn River is a ghat with the city built to the water’s edge. Here the channel was silt to the knee under a closed mat of water hyacinth, buildings stood directly over the edge, and there was no dry approach to the water. The problem at Shree Ghat was not litter on stone, but the bed itself.
Our Approach to This Project
We were honest about the limit of a volunteer drive within the first hour of work: a metre of anaerobic silt that had to be dug out and hauled up a built bank, unsafe by hand and impossible at the scale the ghat needed.
So the drive changed shape. We documented the site and took the photographs to the Indore Municipal Corporation with a written request. Excavators came to the stretch, cut the silt out of the bank and heaped it clear of the channel. Rupees spent on machinery: zero.
