Question 8 of 17
8. Question
1 pointsRecently Arsenic removal plant has been set up in which of the following districts of Bihar? (July 2021)
Correct
CONTEXT: In a bid to provide clean drinking water, Patna-based Mahavir Cancer Sansthan and Research Centre with the help of Central Glass and Ceramic Research Institute and WaterAid, Kolkata, has set up an arsenic removal plant at Sabalpur village in Saran district. Another plant in Maner has been set up by Lehigh University, Pennsylvania, USA
As per WHO’s study, Bihar is reported to be one of the worst affected states in India by arsenic contamination of groundwater.
18 out of the 38 districts that we surveyed and researched have shown arsenic level in groundwater more than 10ppb, which is the permissible level prescribed by WHO.
Arsenic has been identified as carcinogenic (cancer causing agent) by WHO and it has also been associated with developmental effects, neurological and cardiovascular diseases, neurotoxicity and diabetes.
Arsenic is referred to as a ‘slow poison’ because its side-effects start appearing after three to four years of consumption.
The early symptoms are of two types — melanosis, which is white scars or spots on the skin, and keratosis, which causes blisters on the palm and the sole. There is no medicine to cure these symptoms. The only way to treat them is early detection and then providing the affected person with arsenic-free water, protein and fat-rich food and green vegetables as they may revert the symptoms.
