उत्तर
Minamata
Explanation:
Minamata disease was caused by mercury poisoning from industrial wastewater that contaminated the Minamata Bay. The mercury accumulated in fish, which were then consumed by the local population, leading to neurological damage and various symptoms, including numbness, vision and hearing problems, and abnormal behaviour.
