Water is not just essential for surviving, but also is one of the five elements and building blocks of living creatures. Ancient Indians knew it well and and hence they not only protected,but worshipped water.
Ganga is a name of a river ,but also a synonym for water. Ganga is worshiped as Ma ganga, means mother ganga. Thus purity and sanctity of water is maintained. The water which was used for drinking was not used for washing clothes and washing animals. especially river water was earmarked as ghats for various purposes, like drinking , bathing etc.
