This paper offers an extensive examination of studies published in the recent past and highlights documented issues surrounding groundwater pollution, its sources, distribution worldwide. The depletion resources deteriorating overall quality present a significant cause for concern, particularly as large human population relies on drinking water source. review focuses various factors contributing to including anthropogenic activities, hydro climatological influences, natural processes. Special attention is given organic contaminants such pesticides, herbicides, emerging pollutants, which have been found substantial impact quality. Additionally, covers pollution caused by inorganic pollutants like arsenic other heavy metals, with particular emphasis regions experiencing higher incidence these groundwater. Furthermore, includes compilation that highlight increased occurrence waterborne illnesses resulting from fecal microbial contamination, often inadequate sanitary practices. To provide comprehensive understanding global problem, also encompasses fluoride nitrate.
