The massive numbers of Mahakumbh visitors and countless religious bathers have no impact on the complete germ-free state of the Ganga River.  

Surgeon scientists conducted research that identified Ganga as the one and only freshwater river which enables 1,100 bacteriophage types to naturally cleanse the water through pollution removal and germ destruction that exceeds their population numbers by 50 times while also changing bacterial RNAs. 

Padma Shri Dr. Ajay Sonkar revealed groundbreaking information about Ganga water at Mahakumbh following a praise from APJ Abdul Kalam. The top scientist describes Ganga’s capabilities as identical to those of seawater because bacteriophages in the river remove pollution then disappear completely. Ganga uses these specific bacteriophages to function as its protective guardians who quickly clean the river. 

Dr. Sonkar conducts global research in cancer, genetic code, cell biology and autophagy while maintaining collaborations with Wageningen University and Rice University and Tokyo Institute of Technology and Harvard Medical School. 

According to Sonkar the water from Ganga River carries 1,100 types of bacteriophages that operate as security guards through precise identification and elimination of harmful bacteria. Although smaller than bacteria by 50 times bacteriophages demonstrate remarkable power in their structure. 

Bacteriophages penetrate bacteria after which they break their RNA structures to eliminate the cell. Ganga detects dangerous germs which exit from the human body throughout the Maha Kumbh festival when millions bathe in its waters. The report mentions that bacteriophages in the water become activated quickly to perform anti-microbial functions. 

The study establishes one key attribute of bacteriophages which is their capability to eliminate exclusively bacteria that are harmful. Ganga possesses 1,100 bacteriophage types which specifically attack and eliminate diverse kinds of germs. A single phage produces 100 to 300 new phages quickly after its activation point thus enabling continuous bacterial destruction. Bacteriophages found in Ganga only destroy bacteria which are introduced through bathers. Similar to seawater cleanness the self-purification process occurs in Ganga. 

The doctor explains bacteriophages possess medical features that enable them to specifically attack harmful microorganisms while preserving the helpful ones according to Dr. Ajay Sonkar. He interprets Ganga’s distinct method of self-cleansing as an indication from nature that teaches humans to respect the balance of nature because failing to do so will result in natural consequences. 

Through partnerships with Japanese scientist Yoshinori Ohsumi Dr Ajay has spent many years researching cell biology and autophagy at Tokyo Institute of Technology. His research carried out twice at Harvard Medical School focused on cognitive fitness and sensitive guts.
