This is all that the town's website has on the history, which is minimal compared to what the article currently says. Furthermore, Indian council/tehsil etc websites are notoriously unreliable for statements regarding history that pre-dates the formation of their administrative body. Like much else about history published on Indian websites, it is prone to puffery and unattributed. - Sitush ( talk) 20:45, 13 August 2016 (UTC)
A couple of recent attempts have been made to remove the section entitled "Anti-Muslim violence". It seems to me that this section is unduly large and detailed and the detail is sourced to one book whose author has made a determined effort to "localise" the violence, using Garhmukteshwar as an example. Certainly Bihar, which is mentioned as another center of anti-muslim violence doesn't have a detailed mention of it on its page. I think that the section could stand some trimming, at least.

Yes, please someone help to remove this section, based on a book written by a person without any given proof is not enough evidence. this article misguide and spread hate towards Hindu community. I am from Garhmukteshwar, and i have never seen clashes there b/w Hindu and Muslims. And in fact what is the use of this information if it;s spreading hate and unauthorized information. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Blindprogrammer ( talk • contribs) 14:34, 7 November 2017 (UTC)
The town appears to be mentioned quite often in books discussing pollution of the Ganges, although I'm not sure if that is because it is a convenient point for ecological measurement or something else. I also notice a vague mention of new ghats being built there but I haven't yet found anything that says the project has started. - Sitush ( talk) 16:26, 7 November 2017 (UTC)
This one is definitely about the town and it mentions an endangered dolphin species. - Sitush ( talk) 16:35, 7 November 2017 (UTC)
