The Central Pollution Control Board had identified Nambul river as one of the most polluted rivers in the state.

The river originates from Kangchup hills in West Imphal district and flows into the Loktak Lake, a Ramsar site.

Singh also inspected the progress of the sewerage treatment plant which is under construction at Heirangoithong in Imphal West.

The sewerage treatment plant is being built under the Manipur government’s ‘Rejuvenation and Conservation of Nambul River’ project.

The polluted waters drained from the settlement near the banks of the Nambul river will be treated in the treatment plants coming up in the area.

The state government is implementing the project at an estimated cost of Rs 97.72 crores under the National River Conservation Plan of the ministry of environment, forest and climate change to free the Nambul river of effluents within three years.
