摘要
In recent years, the problem of fluoride in Nawa tehsil (Nagaur district) has reached at an alarming proportion. In the last decades, the water table of the Nawa tehsil has fallen. With the lowering of the water table, the amount of fluoride has increased in the subsoil water which is used by the villagers when drawn through hand pumps, tube wells etc. So the present study illustrates the groundwater quality of randomly selected villages of Nawa tehsil. The highest fluoride concentration was found in Rulaniyo ki Dhani i.e. 14.62 ppm. The excessive intake of fluoride resulted in dental and skeletal fluorosis. © 2010 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.
