In Jainism, River Ganga does not have a central or sacred status like in some other traditions.

Key points:

• Jainism does not worship rivers as divine.
• The main focus is on soul purification through right faith, right knowledge, and right conduct, not through sacred geography.
• Water, including river water, is respected because of Ahimsa; Jains avoid harming living beings, so they use water carefully and with awareness.
• In a practical sense, rivers like Ganga may be valued for life, cleanliness, and support to living beings, but not as objects of religious salvation.

So, in Jainism, the importance of Ganga is practical and ethical, not divine or ritual-central.

If you want, I can also explain this from the Digambar and Shwetambar perspective.
