Dolphin has been declared the National Aquatic animal of India. The decision was taken after the proposal came from Mr.Nitish Kumar, CM of Bihar, at the first meeting (6th Oct;09) of the National Ganga River Basin Authority (NGRBA) chaired by the PM Dr. Manmohan Singh.
This is done to save the fresh water species from disappearance from the country's aqua map. Union Environment and Forest Minister Jairam Ramesh said that it (dolphin) represents the health of the rivers, particularly the Ganga in our country.
By this declaration, the Govt. is not only ensuring the survival of the species which are endemic to the Ganga but also seeking cleansing the river. Jairam Ramesh said henceforth the health of Ganga, for which the govt. has big plans for its cleansing, will be judged by the presence of the fresh water dolphin.
