Shri Harish Rawatji, Minister of Water Resources
Deeply pained by the dire situation of the River Yamuna in Vrindavan, which is a sacred pilgrimage site very dear to his heart, he pledged to support Yamuna Action Parivar to implement solutions. Known as a man of action, he was very happy to meet Pujya Swamiji and they discussed plans to formulate a nodal agency dedicated and empowered to address all the issues and challenges that face Yamunaji in a time-bound approach.
Directly after His meeting with Shri KPS Gillji, Pujya Swamiji was warmly received and welcomed back by Director General of DRDO, Dr. VK Saraswatji, and members of DRDO and FICCI team (see picture at top). They discussed the recent approval of a cluster of 108 bio-toilets and clean water taps in key locations in the state of Uttarakhand. Amongst many other important topics of discussion, they spoke about the need for applying more new and innovative technologies so that India can become a model to the world for innovations in not only technology but also spirituality, where true progress and advancement sustains and honours the welfare of all.

Shri Rawatji agreed that once he comes back from his trip abroad he would be most willing and happy to move forth on the suggestions and ideas presented by Pujya Swamiji and Ganga Action Parivar to restore and protect the lifelines and the cultural, spiritual and natural heritage of India.
