"Water is a vital part of the ecosystem. Not only is it significant for human survival and is essential for human health, it is also the main constituent of the earth’s hydrosphere and a crucial element which allows chemical reactions to take place. On the other hand, water is also highly affected by man made pollutants. Illegal and unmonitored waste dumping to water bodies contributes to…
