    Yes, we observed water pollution near our area due to various human activities like toxic discharges from factories and industrial plants, runoff from agricultural fields, domestic wastes etc.

    It can be controlled by preventing the toxic chemicals from entering the water bodies. Regular checks on contamination or rivers, lakes or ponds of toxic compounds need to be done. Use of chemical fertilizers should be avoided to prevent the harmful chemicals from entering the ground water.
