 INTRODUCTION

Drinking water quality is a vital concern for mankind since it is directly linked
with public health. Drinking water quality has always been a major issue in
many countries, especially in developing countries like Bangladesh. Those
issues lead people into hypertension, heart failure, kidney failure, skin diseases,
carcinogenic diseases, diarrhea and other water borne diseases. Every one of
our cells, organs and tissues use water to help with temperature regulation,
keeping hydrated and maintaining bodily functions. In addition, water acts as a
lubricant and cushions our joints. Drinking water is great for our overall health
 LITERATURE REVIEW
 Chittagong Water Supply and Sewerage Authority (CWASA) of Bangladesh is supplying water to the Chittagong city dwellers

through its distribution network after proper treatment of water drawn from the Halda River and Groundwater. ( Zuthi . F.

R, Biswas M. and Bahar M. N.)

 Water quality is an important concern for the consumers and, therefore, the present study was done by collecting 38 drinking

jar water samples from Chittagong City.(Sohana Akter Mina, Lolo Wal Marzan, Tasrin Sultana & Yasmin Akter )

 From the present physicochemical study of the water quality of the Chittagong region, it can be concluded that the

condition of the Karnafuli River is critical and Halda River maybe affected by the polluted Karnafuli River water.

(M. Ahmed, M.R.Haque, A. Ahsan, S. Siraj, M. H.R. Bhuiyan,)

 LITERATURE REVIEW

 The study was carried out to assess surface and groundwater quality of the greater Chittagong (Chittagong and
Cox’s Bazar districts) and Chittagong Hill Tracts (Rangamati, Khagrachhari and Bandarban districts) of Bangladesh.( S. C.
Bhattacharjee and S. Islam)

 The study result indicated that almost all the samples from different locations were not suitable for drinking purposes or
consumption without any primary treatment like adding bleaching powder in water, boiling, filtering etc. Government as well
as NGO’s should (Tanjila Alam Prosun , Md. Shiblur Rahaman)
 OBJECTIVES

 To evaluate different water quality parameters of different sources.

 To Calculate the WQI in different locations.

 To identify the most vulnerable locations in Chattogram city.

Assessment of Drinking Water Quality

 CONCLUSION

The overall study indicates that commercially supplied drinking water of different areas of Chittagong City contains a

wide variety of bacteria. So people of this region are under severe threat of water-related diseases and health risk.

Therefore, the processors of commercially supplied drinking water of Chittagong City have to improve their

processing operations, especially in terms of hygiene and to ensure strict compliance with guidelines as set by (BDS)

standard.
