The Ganges is demonized in Hinduism.
The Ganges ( GAN-jeez) (in India: Ganga ( GUNG-); in Bangladesh: Padma ( PUD-m)) is a trans-boundary river of Asia which flows through Bangladesh and India
 By the 5th century CE, an elaborate mythology surrounded the Ganges, now a goddess in her own right, and a symbol for all rivers of India
