INTRODUCTION
Drinking water quality is deteriorating continually due to biological contamination fromhuman waste, chemical pollutants from industries and agricultural inputs. Piped wateralso gets contaminated because pipes are laid very close to sewerage lines or opendrains and cause many serious water borne diseases. It was found that 45% of infantdeaths have been attributed to diarrhea and about 60% to overall infectious waterbornediseases in Pakistan. According to the World Health Organization (WHO) 25-30% of thediseases are gastro-intestinal in nature. The poor quality of drinking water has forced alarge cross-section of citizens to buy bottled water. As a consequence of this expandingmarket a mushroom growth of bottled water industry in the country is witnessed duringthe last few years. However, many of the mineral water companies were found sellingcontaminated water. To monitor and improve the quality of bottled water, thegovernment of Pakistan has designated the PCRWR as focal point agency.
