The water level of Ganga is continuously rising in Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh. All the 84 concrete ghats have already submerged. The connectivity of the ghats has also been disrupted. The venue of Ganga Aarti on all the ghats has also been shifted to a higher place. The people living in the coastal areas and the sailors are facing the most problems.
Every day, boatmen and people are forced to migrate upstream with their belongings. Whether it is about Ganga Aarti or the temporary shopkeepers on the banks of the ghats or the priests conducting puja at the checkpoints, everyone is facing problems. Here the water level of the Ganga has risen so much that the concrete ghats have submerged.

The main tourist center Namo Ghat, where the huge structure of Namaste is present, is only a few feet below the water level. If the water level of Ganga rises further, water will reach here as well. The tourists who come to see the Ganga Ghat and the boatmen who provide them boating are facing the brunt of this the most, because due to the flood, a much lesser number of people are reaching the Ghat than before.
At the same time, boatmen are also facing huge losses due to the ban on small paddle boats. If the boatmen believe that this continues, then in the coming days, boat operations will be completely banned and this ban will continue for the next three months due to floods. If the report of the Central Water Commission is to be believed, the water level of the Ganges is about 6 meters below the warning point and 7 meters below the danger mark.
