Some reports suggest that till 19th century, Dolphins could be seen in Yamuna River in Delhi region.

Project Dolphin will be launched on the likes of Project Tiger. The proposal was agreed by National Ganga Council, which is headed by P.M.

Earlier, National Mission for Clean Ganga, which works on Namami Gange, which also worked on conserving Dolphins. For now, Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change is implementing Project Dolphin.

Gangetic dolphin is one of the five species of dolphin found in the world. This species is found in Ganga Brahmaputra Meghna and Karnaphuli Sangu river system. In earlier times dolphin could be see in many places in ganga from Bay of Bengal to foothills of Himalays. But construction of mighty barrages and dams , increased pollution have led to decline in dolphin's population.

As Gangetic Dolphin is at the top of the food chain, protecting the species and its habitat will ensure conservation of aquatic lives of the river. Aquatic life is an indicator of the health of river ecosystems.
