One of the fast growing urban centres of South Bengal is Barddhaman Town which is situated on the fertile Lower Damodar Floodplain (23°14′18″N and 87°51′39″E). Recently the urbanization process has been played a dual role in the socio-economic development and environmental degradation. The town has drastically increased its area and population size from 1970, as well as the urban healthy environment is deteriorated. This paper aims to analyse the environmental degradation in terms of pollution. So, we have been selected three aspects of urban pollution- Air, Water and Noise Pollution. Taking Pre-Monsoon and Monsoon measurements of SO2, NO2 and RSPM, we have found that there is high level of air pollution in the selected locations. Analyzing the chemical data of surface waterbodies and sediment samples of waterbodies, we have been traced the heavy metals’ concentration in few locations. Side by side, the silence zones and dense residential areas are very much suffered from noise pollution in daytime. At last combining those results, graphs and spatial coverages of pollutions we have been prepared a ward-wise pollution risk map of Barddhaman Town using Geographic Information System.
