A NEDFi report identified microplastic pollution as a critical environmental challenge in freshwater systems. The study focused on the Brahmaputra River's shorelines and its ecological integrity. IIT Guwahati researchers evaluated remediation approaches like floating barriers and biofilm degradation. The report, released at OCTAVATE 2026, offers policy recommendations for environmental resilience. This initiative aims to protect biodiversity and foster a plastic-resilient future for Northeast India.
