Abstract
Water contamination is the defilement of water
bodies all the time by human activities. It occurs when pollutants are
discharged directly into water bodies without enough treatment to get rid of
harmful compounds. Pollutants get into water mainly by human causes or factors.
Water pollution is one of the biggest issues facing India right now. As may be
evident, untreated sewage is the biggest source of such form of pollution in
India. There are other sources of pollution such as runoff from the
agricultural sector as well as unregulated units that belong to the smallscale
industry. The situation is so serious that perhaps there is no water body in
India that is not polluted to some extent or the other. In fact, it is said
that almost 80% of the water bodies in India are highly polluted. Ganga and
Yamuna are the most polluted rivers in India.
