The impact of industrialization in India



Since India started building industrial areas for ground water systems, Bangalore’s inhabitants have developed serious health problems. So the Bureau of India Standards (BIS) launched an investigation to discover the cause of the problem. The result shows that water in the area contains nitrates, calcium, magnesium, sulphates, fluorides and many other products people don’t usually enjoy drinking. Now the impact is that a lot of people living in Peenya’s industrial area, in the city of Bangalore are suffering from serious health problems because of the consumption of toxic water. Since the problem was discovered in 2003, an alert about the urgency of the water qualities problems has been ringing in all urban areas.

On the contrary, it frequently causes more damage when the country isn’t developed enough in terms of economic and health systems
