Abstract

There is much similarity between the geological formation of the Gangetic and the Brahmaputra plains as both are formed by sedimentation of soils from the Himalayas. The shallow aquifers of both the plains are also expected to be similar except for some variations caused by difference in rainfall and occurrence of floods. Hence, the findings of arsenicosis and arsenic (As) contamination of groundwater in Bangladesh and the Gangetic plains of India (Chakraborti et al. Talanta 58:3–22, 2002; Chatterjee et al. Analyst 120:643–650, 1995) had indicated the possibility of similar fate of the Brahmaputra plains and the Borak plains of the north-eastern region of India also, which was soon proven to be true.
