The samples from three stations viz., Pavnar Ashram (S1) , Ghorad (S2) & Morchapur (S3) were collected. The data was analysed with reference to ISI & WHO standards. It is found that the water is safe for domestic purposes & aquatic life from the point of view of levels of pH, density, surface tension, viscosity, conductance, TDS, alkalinity, DO & chloride concentration. However, the water quality parameters such as total hardness & Ca++ hardness at some stations were beyond the permissible limit. So it is suggested to remove total hardness & Ca++ hardness to make it fit for consumption.
