Kanh is a river flowing through Indore, the largest city in the Indian state of Madhya Pradesh.[1] The river started carrying sewage in the early 1990s. Several attempts have been made to clean the river, yet it remains polluted.[2]
The river, along with the Saraswati River, is a part of the Smart City Indore project, and a riverfront spanning 3.9 kilometres has already been developed along the river.[3] Both the rivers are being rejuvenated under the Smart Cities Mission.[4]
