Released under the Ministry of Jal Shakti, the Central Ground Water Board’s (CGWB) report is based on around 15,000 samples collected across India in 2024.
It revealed that of the 86 monitored locations in Delhi, on several parameters, the samples exceeded Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) drinking water limits.
"Overall, the study shows that while most groundwater in India is safe, certain regions face rising uranium levels, emphasising the need for regular monitoring and local mitigation measures to protect drinking water quality and health," the report said.
