INTRODUCTION
Assam Public Health Department (APHED) is the nodal State
Government’s department for the rural areas of Assam. APHED is
managed by highly qualified and experienced professional staff and
has been serving the people of the state since 1956.To facilitate the
process of mobilising collective energies of the organisational
functionaries as well as all other stake holders, the mission, vision,
and thrust areas of the organisation have been identified with
participatory approach.
Public health engineering can play an important and significant role
in solving environmental health issues. in order to confront public
health challenges emerging out of environmental problems we need
adequately trained public health engineers. Considering the current
burden of disease attributable to environmental factors and
expansion in scope of applications of public health, it is essential to
understand the present scenario of teaching, training and capacity
building programs in these areas.
Against this background the present research was carried out to
know the current teaching and training programs in public health
engineering and related disciplines in India and to understand the
potential opportunities and challenges available. A systematic,
predefined approach was used to collect and assemble the data
related to various teaching and training programs in public health
engineering in India.
JAL JEEVAN MISSION
Jal Jeevan Mission, a Central Government initiative under the

Ministry of Jal Shakti, aims to ensure access of piped water for every
household in India.In 2019’s Independence Day, the Prime Minister,
Narendra Modi said in his speech that half of the country’s
household did not have access to piped water, Earmarking Rs.3.5
trillion for Jal Jeevan Mission, he said the Centre and sates would
word towards it in coming years.The mission’s goal is to provide all
households in rural India safe and adequate water through individual
household tap connections by 2024.
The Har Ghar Nal se Jal programme was announced by Finance
Minister Nirmala Sitharaman in her Budget 2019-2020 speech. This
programme forms a crucial part of the Jal Jeevan Mission. This
programme also aims to implement source sustainability measures
as mandatory elements, such as recharge and reuse through grey
water management, water conservation, and rain water harvesting.
The Jal Jeevan Mission will be based on a community approach to

water. According to the government, the mission will include
information, education and communication as key components. The
mission is meant to create a people’s movement for water, making it
everyone’s priority.
DRINKING WATER CRISIS IN INDIA
India is facing one of its most serious water crises. According to the
NITI Aayog’s Composite Water Management Index (CWMI) 2018, 21
Indian cities could face day Zero in the coming years. Day Zero refers
to the day when a place is likely to have no drinking water of its own.
Bengaluru, Chennai, Delhi and Hyderabad are among the most
susceptible. The report also said that 75% of Indian households do
not have drinking water on premise and about 84% rural households
do not have piped water access.Water is not properly distributed
where it is supplied through pipes. Mega cities like Delhi and
Mumbai get more than the standard municipal water norm of 150
litres per capita per day (LPCD) while others get 40-50 LPCD.
The World Health Organization prescribes 25 litres of water for one
person per day to meet all basic hygiene and food needs. Extra
available water, according to WHO estimates, is used for non-
portable purposes like mopping and cleaning.
LAB TEST
Lab Tests are done in Public Health Engineering Department to check
the quality of water used by the people as drinking water. The
presence of high amount of substances like Iron (Fe), Fluoride (F),
Nitrate (N), Arsenic (As) can cause several severe health issues to
people consuming water where these molecules are present. There
are diseases that are caused with increase in the amount of these
substance present in the water consumed by the people. High
amount of the following in drinking water causes---
 Iron- damage to liver, heart and pancreas

 Fluoride- dental fluorosis, skeletal fluorosis
 Nitrate- methemoglobinemia (also known as blue baby
syndrome)
 Arsenic- cancer and skin lesions
Test for Iron (Fe) - We take sample water 5ml. Fe1 reagent is added
by 2-3 drops. We shake it well. We let the mixture wait for 5minutes.
Spectrophotometer testing machine is used. A Qvate has a rough and
a smooth side. We should hold on the rough side. The range of iron
should be between 0.5 to 5. For dilution we should multiply the
result with 2. Iron above 1mg/l is not permissible.
Test for Fluoride (F) – We take 5ml sample of water. For this test we
use reagent F1 2ml. Another reagent named F2 one spoon. We let
the mixture rest for 5 minutes. Shake it well. Place it in the
spectrophotometer testing machine. The range of fluoride should be
between 0.10 to 2. Fluoride above 1-1.5 mg/l is not permissible.
Nitrate (N) above 45mg/l is not permissible.
Arsenic (As) above 0.001mg/l is cancerous.
For drinking water, the ph level should be between 6.5 to 8.5.
Turbility should not be more than 5.
Range of conductivity is 1000. Range of conductivity above 1000 is
not good.
We conducted several tests including Hardness test. Here EDTA

solutions is used as titrate in burette. We use ammonium buffer 1ml
or 2ml. Hydroxylamine hydrochloride solution. Indicator EBT 1 or
2drops. Range between 200 – 400.
For Calcium hardness test, indicator used is murexide.
For Chloride hardness test, indicator used is potassium chromate.

GROUND WATER SUPPLY SCHEME
To purify water sand is used. Tanks are filled with gravels layer by
layer. Water is sprinkled into the tank such that the iron present in
water come in contact with moisture and vanishes.Water is then
sent to the underground tank and stored. The stored water is sent to
the overhead. Overhead tanks may be built may be built of any
material but the idea is to achieve maximum efficiency by placing a
tank in some elevated distance.
Later the same water is sent to people’s houses near and far.
CONCLUSION
The public Health department is primarily responsible for

supply of safe drinking water to rules areas . This can be
achieved by ensuring that the demands for drinking water
appropriately addressed in the context of the physical ,
environmental and social background to the state .At the
same time , we need to ensure that this vital resource will
continue be sustainable for future generation to come.
Rural water supply systems including installation of hand

pumps , mini water supply system, etc , in small habitations /
wards with pipe water supply system for every individual
household . A massive exercise has been launched aiming at
strengthening and restructuring of departments , thereby
reorienting it into a facilitate prompt maintenance ,
etc.Priority based approach has been adopted for selection ,
implementation and commissioning of new projects .
importance has been given to the timely completion of
schemes.
