Bangladesh, drinking water in 61 districts is contaminated by
arsenic. About 30 million people are either directly or indirectly
exposed to arsenic contamination with varying degrees of risk. The

conceived by the general peoples in Bangladesh. Arsenic problem in
Bangladesh has a relationship with the nutritional status of the

Bangladesh. Consequences of contamination on society and human
health have also been described here. A case study has been
