The appearance of arsenic in ground water has posed as a public health hazard having a very significant impact on people’s live, health, social and economic activities in Bangladesh. In fact, the arsenic contamination of groundwater has created additional burden in the rural water supply management demanding water treatment and water quality surveillance. To cope up with the situation, a new innovative approach for ‘Arsenic Free Safe Water Supply’ has been initiated through Bangladesh Arsenic Mitigation Water Supply Project.
