The National Mission for Clean Ganga is enhancing its conservation efforts with real-time monitoring systems and scientific tools, marking a shift towards data-driven decision-making to protect the river's endangered species.
At Uttar Pradesh's National Chambal Sanctuary, the mission has introduced SMART patrolling, a digital field activity tracking system that monitors species like gharials and dolphins in real time.
GIS and remote sensing technologies are being used to continuously monitor wetlands, detect land use changes, and assess restoration efforts, offering a precise approach to ecological management.
