  • Abstract:
  • The Yamuna River, a major tributary of the Ganges, is a vital water source for millions of people in India. However, the river has been plagued by severe pollution, which has had a significant impact on the aquatic life, particularly the fish population. The contamination of the Yamuna River is a result of various factors, including industrial waste, agricultural runoff, and domestic sewage. This research paper aims to investigate the impact of water pollution on the fishes in the Yamuna River and the potential health risks associated with their consumption.
