Fluoride Content Studies in Underground Water of Umarban and Tirla Blocks (Dhar) of Madhya Pradesh, India
Water is one of the major components of life for living being on earth. On the earth, it is abundant and most unusual natural component. Hand
pumps, wells, ponds and rivers are the common resources for villages of Dhar district, a tribal belt area. Among them water quality of hand
pump is degrading continuously with faster rate and therefore it is essential to monitor water quality time to time and treatment, if needed
before use of drinking purpose. The present manuscript deals with fluoride concentration at Umarban and Tirla blocks of Dhar district ofMadhya Pradesh. Various drinking water sources of Umarban and Tirla blocks of Dhar district were specified and selected for sampling and
their fluoride concentration were analyzed. The fluoride concentration in Khandan Bujurg (S-3), Ghanora (S-26) and Kuwa (S-21) water
sources, is much higher than Badlipura (S-8), Dhanora (S-27) and Banzari (S-29) etc. These water sources having high fluoride concentration
are marked as red. It is advised that water from these water sources must not to be used for drinking purpose before treatment.
