THE Nalgonda district administration has launched a comprehensive survey to evaluate fluorine levels in Marriguda mandal, an area historically associated with high fluorine content in drinking water.
Notably, Bhatlapalli village in the mandal once recorded 29 mg in a litre of water, the state's highest fluorine concentration.
The survey, initiated on the order of district Collector Ila Tripathi will cover 40 villages, including remote areas.
Asha workers are conducting door-to-door assessments to gather data on the prevalence and impact of fluorine contamination.
