About PRAGYAMBU

cGanga is bringing out a Quarterly Newsletter “Pragyambu” with In-depth Information and studies about River Basin Management. This is an endeavour of cGanga team to combine modern science with Traditional wisdom for River Basin Management and River Restoration. The Newsletter is known as Pragyambu. Our motive behind publishing Pragyambu is explaining different aspects of River Science in a language that is easily understood by the readers from different educational background.

The word PRAGYAMBU is a combination of two Sanskrit words “Pragya” means Wisdom and “Ambu” means water. By publishing Pragyambu we want to create wisdom and understanding about water and water sources.

The purpose of this quarterly digest brought out by the Centre of Ganga River Basin Management and studies (cGanga) lead by the IIT Kanpur is to disseminate valuable traditional and scientific knowledge assimilated from national and international sources on various aspects of management of water and river restoration and conservation among concerned institutions and citizens.
