Ramsar Site

The Narora Ramsar site is an 82 km stretch of the Upper Ganga River in Uttar Pradesh, India, named after the Narora barrage. This riverine Ramsar site is a critical habitat for the critically endangered Ganges River Dolphin and provides a home for many other endangered faunal elements, including threatened waterbirds. The site, also known as the Upper Ganga River (Brijghat to Narora), was designated for its ecological importance and biodiversity, though it faces threats from sewage, agricultural runoff, and intensive fishing.
