        abstract = {A detailed investigation conducted in the rural regions of Greater Noida, India, revealed the profound impact of water contamination on the prevalence of heart and skin diseases in 27 families surveyed. The study revealed that inadequate sanitation, marked by overflowing household waste, scattered litter, and hidden drainage systems, played a significant role in polluting water sources, thereby increasing disease susceptibility. Furthermore, established cultural practices, such as alcohol consumption and tobacco use, increased the health risks associated with these conditions. Although there was some level of awareness regarding the potential health hazards, the findings emphasized an urgent need for improved water quality, lifestyle modifications, and targeted health interventions to lower disease incidence. The research has far-reaching implications for public health policies, stressing the importance of comprehensive strategies that address environmental, behavioral, and health-related factors to mitigate disease risks in rural India. By prioritizing water quality improvements and encouraging community-driven initiatives, healthier and more resilient communities can be developed.},
