Summary edit
| Description |
English: Today the Bagmati river is in great peril. As a result of industrialisation, urbanisation and poor planning, the river faces serious environmental and ecological challenges. Large amounts of water are withdrawn upstream and the quality of the remaining water is very poor. Untreated sewage, household waste and hazardous chemicals are dumped into the river indiscriminately. The state of the river is further aggravated by uncontrolled sand mining, as well as construction of houses, factories and slum settlements.

Aufgrund der Industrialisierung, Urbanisierung und schlechter Planung ist der Fluss mit riesigen umweltpolitischen und ökologischen Problemen konfrontiert. Im oberen Flusslauf werden dem Fluss grosse Mengen von Wasser entzogen und die Qualität des verbleibenden Wassers ist äusserst schlecht. Die Bevölkerung shüttet immer noch Abwasser, Hausmüll und gefährliche Chemikalien wahllos in den Fluss. Der Zustand des Flusses wird zusätzlich durch unkontrollierten Minenbau sowie den schnellen Bau von Häusern, Fabriken und Slums verschlimmert.

L'industrialisation, l'urbanisation et la piètre planification l'a confronté à de graves défis environnementaux et écologique. De grandes quantités d'eau sont prélevées en amont et la qualité du peu d'eau restant s'avère très faible. L'absence de traitement des eaux usées, les déchets ménagers et les produits chimiques toxiques sont indifféremment déversés dans la rivière. De plus, l'extraction sauvage du sable, la construction de logements, d'usines et l'apparition de bidonvilles continuent d'aggraver la situation.
