Recent studies conducted by the Bhabha Atomic Research Centre (BARC) have indicated that the newly proposed national standard of 30 µg/L for uranium concentration in drinking water might be overly stringent. The current safety level, set at 60 µg/L, is considered to be safe based on recent evaluations. This study highlights the ongoing debate about the appropriate safety limits for uranium concentration in drinking water.
