The Warora block of Chandrapur district has been taken up in NAQUIM 2.0 in AAP 2023–24, as shown
in Figure 1.4. The study area covers three number of watersheds namely 4E4A5, 4E4H1 and 4E4H2
covering 998.95 sq.kms. of area. Considering the quality of the groundwater, high concentrations of
fluoride in the groundwater are due to geogenic fluoride contamination to be mapped on 1:10,000 scale.
High-fluoride groundwater in this region poses a risk to the safety of drinking water and has impacted the
development of the social economy. Therefore, based on administrative boundaries Warora Block has
been taken up in groundwater quality out of 11 priority areas as per the Central Ground Water Board's
(CGWB) national mandate
