View of East Kolkaa Wetlands!

The Ramsar Convention describes East Kolkata Wetlands (EKW) as “one of the rare examples of environmental protection and development management” where the city’s sewage is treated through a network of canals and fishponds, simultaneously with wastewater pisciculture.

The system has been so effective that Kolkata was not provided funds for setting up conventional sewage treatment plant under the Ganga Action Plan.

However, the wetlands continue to shrink. A site where conversion of land character was banned by the Calcutta high court 25 years ago and reaffirmed by the Ramsar guidelines in 2002 and state government’s EKW (Conservation and Management) Act, 2006, illegal constructions are mushrooming.
