Rudrasagar Lake, a vital habitat for diverse flora and fauna, supports over 2000 households to sustain their daily livelihoods. The current study attempts to examine the impact of human activities on spatio-temporal variation in the water quality of the study area. The study integrates extensive field surveys, sample processing, and statistical analysis to assess the recent status of wetland health.

- Purulia, a malaria-affected district in West Bengal, India, was analyzed for malaria cases from 2016 to 2020, revealing significant demographic and geographic trends in infection rates.
- The study noted a decrease in cases due to the implementation of mass distribution of Long-Lasting Insecticidal Nets (LLINs), with most cases occurring in older males, particularly among Scheduled Tribes.
- Predictions using an exponential decay model indicate that with continued efforts, 13 blocks in Purulia could achieve malaria-free status by 2025, urging government action to sustain elimination initiatives.
