Assessment of Drinking Water Quality of the People Living Around the Barishal District, Bangladesh.

Abstract Bangladesh is a densely populated country in South-East Asia. Increasing population along with increasing development activities lead to exploitation and pollution of water supplies readily available to us. Therefore, water quality indicators are imposed as a global problem to determine its suitability for individual uses as well as to establish major strategies for optimal use of water resources. Failure to ensure safe drinking water with efficient purification systems will leave communities vulnerable to waterborne outbreaks with harmful health conditions.
