The southern Sindh province of Pakistan adjoins the

Arabian Sea coast where drinking water quality is

deteriorating due to dumping of industrial and urban

waste and use of agrochemicals and yet has limited fresh

water resources. The study assessed the drinking water

quality of canal, shallow pumps, dug wells, and water

supply schemes from the administrative districts of

Thatta, Badin, and Thar by measuring physical,

chemical, and biological (total coliform) quality

parameters. All four water bodies (dug wells, shallow

pumps canal water, and water supply schemes) exceeded

WHO MPL for turbidity (24%, 28%, 96%, 69%), coliform

(96%, 77%, 92%, 81%), and electrical conductivity

(100%, 99%, 44%, 63%), respectively. However, the

turbidity was lower in underground water, i.e., 24% and

28% in dug wells and shallow pumps as compared to

open water, i.e., 96% and 69% in canal and water supply

schemes, respectively. In dug wells and shallow pumps,

limits for TDS, alkalinity, hardness, and sodium

exceeded, respectively, by 63% and 33%; 59% and 70%,

40% and 27%, and 78% and 26%. Sodium was major

problem in dug wells and shallow pumps of district

Thar and considerable percent in shallow pumps of

Badin. Iron was major problem in all water bodies of

district Badin ranging from 50% to 69% and to some

extent in open waters of Thatta. Other parameters as pH,

copper, manganese, zinc, and phosphorus were within

standard permissible limits of World Health

Organization. Some common diseases found in the studyarea were gastroenteritis, diarrhea and vomiting, kidney,

and skin problems.

UNDERGROUND PIPELINE SYSTEM:

In the district Thatta and Badin, People usually use

the water that is supplied by the Administrative of

the respective districts, by the means of the

underground pipeline system. Above defined diseases

are due to the fact that the supply lines of the water

system carries a very bad and un hygienic condition

as the Potable water lines lies beneath the waste

water carrying lines .

7/28/2019 Water Borne Disesases Related to the Southern Parts of the Sindh Mansoor Moin

As a fact that waste water may have a certain

weight due to which the waste water lines may

became leaks and the Dirt and the Pathogenic

Microorganism my get entered into the Premium

Drinking Water Lines. Hence, water may became

contaminated or in some areas it may became

POLLUTED, hence misfit for the human

consumption.

The River Indus that passes nearby the both

districts also contain the high level of the toxic

chemical, which also contributed to the water borne

diseases, as the Administrative also supply the same

river water to the both districts.

CHEMICAL INDUSTRIES:

Chemical industries contributing a lot in the water

borne diseases, as they discharge their waste into the

river without treating it, in their waste water

treatment plant. These Industries may include the

Denim dying industries, Cotton and textile industries

and the detergent producing industries, and their

waste may include the alarming levels of the heavy

metals(Hg, Cd, Ni and Ar) and the toxic substances.

SEA WATER INTRUSION:

Sea water intrusion has its own optimum role in

it. As the sea water contains the high levels ofalkaline earth metals like MAGNESIUM and

CALCIUM and their carbonates which contributes in

the Hardness of the water, hence making the water

unfit for the washing purposes as well.

Therefore, the underground water also getscontaminated and in some areas of the Thatta and

Badin it completely became polluted.

1.BOIL THE WATER BEFORE CONSUMING IT.

2.USE OF THE CHOLORINE TABLETS IS

RECOMMENDED (KEEP IN MIND THAT THE PEOPLE

DIDNT KNOW WHO TO USE SUCH TABLETS, POOR

SOCIO ECONOMIC CONDITION).

3.THE USUALL TEMPERATURE IN THE SUMMER IN

BOTH THE DISTRICTS (i-e 38 TO 45) PROVIDES A

NATURAL DISINFECTION BY THE MEANS OF THE

SOLAR DISINFECTION, AS THE RADIATION KILLS THE

MOST OF THE MICRO ORGANISM PRESENT IN THE

WATER, AND THE VOLATILE ORGANIC

CONTAMINANTS IF PRESENT MAY BECAME

EVAPORATED IN SUCH CONDITONS
