Sources of water supply for more than 25 million people in the country contain fluorides. Such sources for over one million people contain arsenic compounds beyond permissible limits, the director of Rajiv Gandhi National Drinking Water Mission (RGNDWM), Mr Palat Mohandas, said here today. He was speaking at a regional workshop for promoting community participation in rural water supply programmes.
