J&K among 6 worst-performing states, UTs in water quality index
Srinagar, Apr 29:J&K figures among the six worst-performing states and UTs in India on a widely circulated water quality index, ranking 31st out of 36. With a score of 62 percent, J&Ks water quality appears to be dipping, signaling an ecological crisis for a region located in water-rich Himalayan landscape. The finding is concerning, as the map, shared by a social media new outlet, shows only Ladakh, Dadra and Nagar Haveli and Daman and Diu, Maharashtra, Uttar Pradesh, and Delhi with a lower score. The low ranking reflects the deeper stress in water bodies, flagged many a times by monitoring agencies. The scores and percentages of the states and UTs are based on the data of the Central Pollution Control Board. Mizoram tops the list with a percentage of 92.5, the higher percentage indicating the better water quality. All north-Eastern states have scored high on water quality, while Uttrakhand and Himachal Pradesh, the other two Himalayan states, also have a fair score of 82 percent and 83 percent. J&K is home to some of Indias most significant freshwater assets. Its low ranking suggests that the challenge is no longer just safe supply, but whether the ecosystems feeding that supply are themselves being degraded. The map titled Who has the cleanest water in India has been shared by filtercoffeeHQ on its X handle. CPCB has identified eight polluted water bodies in J&K, including polluted stretches of the Jhelum. Chuntkol in Srinagar has Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD) of 11.2, while a Jhelum stretch has recorded 7.8, both indicating serious pollution pressure. BoD is a marker of organic pollution: BOD of 3mg/L and less is acceptable for bathing quality surface water, while drinking water must score less than 2mg/L. Sewage polluting the water bodies remains the major crisis. According to official assessments, 163 million litres per day (MLD) of sewage is generated in Srinagar, while treatment capacity stood at just 60 MLD. This leaves roughly 63 percent untreated, with waste flowing into the Jhelum and Dal Lake. A shocking 103 MLD of sewage enters water bodies without treatment as per the figures furnished to National Green Tribunal in 2025. J&K government has acknowledged untreated wastewater from drains in parts of south Kashmir enters streams feeding the Jhelum. This raises concern over contamination of a river that is the main source of drinking water supply in the Valley. Even as raw water sources remain stressed, official monitoring shows the administration has sharply expanded testing. In 2024-25, 2.66 lakh water samples were tested across 6,122 villages. Of these, 78 contaminated samples were detected. In 2025-26, laboratory-tested samples reportedly rose to 3.07 lakh. J&K has 98 testing laboratories, including 2 UT-level, 20 district-level and 76 sub-divisional facilities. However, despite large-scale testing and surveillance, J&K still appears in the countrys bottom six on water quality. That contradiction could be due to difference in testing, taking place at drinking water sources at supply points and the deteriorating condition of rivers, lakes and source waters.
Steam boiler explosion at cold store leaves 1 dead, 2 injured
Srinagar, Apr 29: A blast at a cold storage unit in the fruit mandi area of Aglar in south Kashmirs Shopian district on Wednesday late evening left one engineer dead and two others injured during repair work. The incident occurred at Zum Zum cold store when a steamer being repaired exploded, injuring three engineers on the spot. The injured were shifted to District Hospital Shopian for treatment, where one of them succumbed to injuries, while two others are undergoing treatment. The deceased has been identified as Saurabh Singh, while the injured have been identified as Dileep Kumar and Ram Kumar. All three are residents of Aligarh in Uttar Pradesh. A steamer in such units refers to a steam-generating system or boiler used for heating, pressure control, or maintenance operations within the facility. It operates under high pressure and temperature, and any malfunction during repair or operation can lead to explosions, making it a high-risk component if not handled properly. The trio was reportedly engaged in repair work at the cold storage facility when the explosion took place. The condition of the injured persons was not immediately known. The cause of the blast is being ascertained. Notably, a cold store (cold storage facility) is a temperature-controlled unit used to preserve perishable goods such as fruits, vegetables, and other agricultural produce by slowing down spoilage and extending shelf life.
