    abstract = {Food adulteration and contamination is
nothing new in this age. It is the consequence of modern
civilization, people moving from places with altered
social value and ethics, industrialization and rapid
progression of economic activities. It is highly prominent
in urban areas of many developed or underdeveloped
countries and so is with in Dhaka city. Commercialism
and business mind drive people toward such unethical
activities knowingly or unknowingly. Most of the cases it
is done by uneducated or illiterate people, having least
idea about what evil they are doing to mankind. People
who are health conscious mostly avoid these but many of
them have to go with this because of the busy life
schedule or carelessness. By definition, safe food or drink
means pollutants or adulterants presence within the limit
of the standard such as pathogenic micro-organisms,
natural toxins and potentially harmful chemicals that may
cause health hazards beyond a certain limit, either
deliberately added or naturally present in them. Again, the
economic development of the country doesn’t reveal basic
literacy and awareness of general people. Necessary steps
should be taken by the authority and mass people should
change their mind set up and have to avoid those who
creates harm. Brief review of chemical induced food and
drinking contamination, their consequences and control.
Health care providers/policy makers have a major role
play to concerned field. Both general people and the old
system are responsible for this unlivable condition of
Bangladesh. Population is not the sole for this instance. A
sense of poor rules and regulation is always found
everywhere. Negligence is becoming a wide spread
disease contaminating illiterate to well educated, all kind
of people. Many articles and documents found in
concerned area of research but the scope of this research
is on its focus point chemical induced food adulteration in
Bangladesh. Still, the most important aspect of
contamination and adulteration is covered but fact is less
amount of recent data obtained in few areas. The language
of this study is too simple to understand by people with
simple scientific literacy. Pharmacists, doctors, nurses,
hospital authorities, public representatives, policy makers
and regulatory authorities along with general people have
to acquire much from this article. Any article or research
is based on the think doing good for mankind, at least
going ahead from the present situation, overcoming
problems and measures. Bangladesh has recently passed
from the list of LDC country with massive economic
development. The article should create a guideline for the
future policy makers of both government and other sectors
to review the alarming situation of chemical induced food
and water contaminants\adulterants in Bangladesh.}
