WEST BENGAL GOV., (INDIA) FAIL TO GIVE ITS PEOPLE SAFE DRINKING WATER


After a long 28 years pass away, still the West Bengal Gov. did not able to prepare the Arsenic area affected map. Due to this, it is practically impossible to take any workable project to reduce the Arsenic pollution.
                        Today, ground water contamination with Arsenic is not only serious problem in India but also to world. Because groundwater is natural & safest source for drinking water (compare to other source), heavy metal Arsenic makes this water undrinkable to us.
                        At present in West Bengal, 17,000 villages of 79 blocks are under Arsenic contamination. It does not end here. New area is affected by passing time & until recognization process speed up. The Arsenic problem in West Bengal creates Cataclysm. When the eyes of West Bengal Gov. will open? God knows until, the work of Institution like BESU are appreciatable. However, this work is not for Institutional or NGO’s, it totally depends on Gov. to give its people safe drinking water.
