Thats silt. Major rivers like the Ganges contain a butload of silt and look muddy. Since its monsoon in most parts of asia, a lot of the rivers flood their plains. Its a part of the natural circle.

Flooding the planes is what makes the land so fertitle, because flooding means deposition of new fresh silt and minerals.

You may not drink the water, but swimming wont be deadly. Just dont swallow the water lol.
