Rowing down a healing river

Indian boatsman Subhas rows his boat on the river Ganges at Sangam, the confluence of the Ganges,
Yamuna and Saraswati rivers, in Allahabad. The belief that the Ganges washes away sin entices millions of
Hindus into the river each year, but concern over pollution along the length of the 2,500 kilometre (1,500 mile)
river is growing.  AFP
