The present study makes an attempt to mainly design to analyze the impact of fluoride in plain tropical central India and affecting health conditions of the school children. Fluoride naturally, a toxic material for the human beings but its more concentration in the body due to anthropogenic activities increases the risk of more dangerous outcomes. We utilized ionic concentration, hydrochemistry, fluoride content and health risk assessed from the different collected water samples in the month of June, 2017. This study shows the concentration of fluoride content in water sample ranged from 0.08-2.4 mg/l (mean = 0.6 mg/l) and had positive relation with the pH (r = 0.49), HCO3- (r = 0.29) and Na+ (r = 0.20). Few, 9.18% water sample out of total collected samples were exceeding the permissible limit (> 1.5 mg/l) of fluoride content in groundwater which was not suitable for drinking purpose due to the heavy loading of fluoride content.
