Both surface and underground water are contaminated with toxic metals and pesticides and arsenic (μg/L) were found to be 50. The quality parameters set by the WHO are persistently violated. The water quality is seriously affected by improper disposal of industrial, domestic waste and agrochemicals. These pollutants are responsible alone, or along with other factors for a variety of health problems. This article discusses drinking water being supplied in Sahiwal (Pakistan) to students living in the hostel along with an emphasis on the major pollutants, their effects and consequent health problems. The data presented in this article have been collected in Sahiwal. The water samples were collected from the main supply and the blood samples were of the consumers of that water.
