Arsenic Pollution: A Silent Killer
Day by day arsenic problem is becoming acute in our country. Many people are becoming victims of this silent killer. Arsenic poisoning occurs when its intake crosses the tolerable limit. Maximum tolerable limit is 0.05 milligram per 1. Contamination leads to appearance of black spots on human skin, particularly palm and leads to hardening of toes. Intake of arsenic contaminated water over a long time harms livers, kidneys, lungs and the skin. The doctors say that there is no efficacious medicine to treat arsenic related diseases. Arsenic contamination is widespread in Bangladesh. About half of our population is under the threat of arsenic pollution. According to UNICEF survey 22% tube wells of our country risk arsenic contamination. Arsenic contamination is maximum in the southern and northeastern part of Bangladesh. It is believed that vitamins A, C and E are effective for treatment of arsenic. Surface water in ponds and rivers and rainwater are free from arsenic. After boiling they can be taken. People of our country should be aware of this poison. The government should set up deep tubewells in the villages. The unsafe tubewells should be marked red and safe ones should be marked green.

With due respect, we would like to lay before you the following facts for your kind consideration and necessary action.
Modern age is the age of science. In every sphere of our life we feel the touch of science. The students of our college are very much interested in science. We believe that holding a science fair will enable our students to learn more about science. They will get opportunity to bring out their latent talents by presenting different projects on science. They will be able to find the ways of using science in our day to day life. We will invite different reputed colleges of the Dhaka city to participate in the fair. Our two science teachers have agreed to guide us in this regard. We will need 10,000/- taka to hold the fair successfully.
We therefore pray and hope that you would be kind enough to grant our prayer and oblige thereby.
Yours obediently
