Fluorine is found in the combined state in ground water, sea water and in some other sources of water. The permitted level is 1ppm to 3ppm in drinking water. The occurrence of Fluorine is due to variety of geological factors. Presence of Fluoride in water causes many diseases in humans and other animals. Non availability of proper and easy deflouridation techniques is also a problem. In the present study the level of Fluoride in Ground water has been studied.
