bution of the block Raninagar-2 ranged from 0.3 to 0.5 for both
actual and arsenic pollution affected HDI and it was affected by
arsenic pollution as the areal coverage of the HDI range 0.4 to
0.5 was reduced and came under the HDI range of 0.3 to 0.4
(Figs. 6a and 6b). Similarly block Suti-1 (HDI varied from 0.2 to
0.6) was also affected due to the impact of arsenic pollution as
areal coverage of HDI ranges of 0.4 to 0.5 and 0.5 to 0.6 were
