GANGES RIVER
The River Ganges is about 2700 km long. The river starts from a glacier in Himalayas. It begins in the southern Himalayas, near India’s border with the Chinese region of Tibet. The Ganges flows through north India, and ends at the Bay of Bengal in eastern India. After emerging from the mountains, the river flows onto the plains. It flows through Nepal, India and Bangladesh.
For millions of people in India, river Ganga is the most sacred river. It is important especially for those who live on the banks of its course and depend on it for their daily needs. They believe that if they bathe, dip themselves in its waters, the waters can wash away all sins, cure them of illness. Hindus have built many temples to burn the dead in the Ganges.
But the River Ganges is very polluted. Water from the Ganges has been used for irrigation for more than 2,000 years. Rice and other crops grown in the Ganges region feed most of India and Bangladesh. Bangladesh and some Indian states transport jute, tea, grain, and other agricultural products to markets where they can be sold on the River Ganges.

This ash goes into the waters of the river.

Therefore, the functions of the policeman are different: you can serve in the criminal investigation department, the patrol service, the precinct service, the departments for combating economic crimes.
Наверное, нет настолько нужной и востребованной профессии, как профессия полицейского. Всегда и везде, в любое время, в любом обществе существует необходимость в поддержании общественного порядка, в соблюдении закона, в обеспечении защиты граждан и имущества.
Поэтому и функции полицейского разные: можно служить в уголовном розыске, патрульно-постовой службе, службе участковых, отделах по борьбе с экономическими преступлениями.
