Sutlej River: In Punjab, the river Sutlej gets heavily polluted by domestic sewage, agricultural run-off and effluent discharged from several types of industrial units which may contain heavy metals. The project is being executed as a joint venture of the NHPC (69 per cent), Sutlej Jal Vidyut Nigam Limited (26 per cent) and the Manipur Govt (5 per cent).
The results of this study provide valuable information on the metal contents in water, sediment and fish from different sampling stations of the river Sutlej. With this in mind, a study was planned to determine levels of heavy metals in edible fishes of Satluj river collected from four stations.
