Abstract

Freshwater plays an important role in this world. The main source for freshwater of the world is groundwater. In day-to-day life, groundwater is used as a major resource for drinking water. Nowadays, it is observed that the groundwater quality and quantity are heavily deteriorated in most of the industrialized and intense-populated areas. In most of the cases, human being is responsible for environmental disaster. The groundwater quantity and quality should match to the drinking water requirement and other usage purpose. Otherwise, it may cause many problems in day-to-day life. Here, we are trying to describe the reason of pollutions for groundwater and the prevention methods to deal with such problems.
