Abstract:
Hyderabad is a metropolitan city with a population of more than six million and the extent of municipal solid wastes ranges from 2500-5000 Metric tons per day. The present work is aimed to assess the quality of water resources surrounding Jawaharnagar Dumpsite and its suitability for drinking purpose using Water Quality Index (WQI). As a part of study, 2 surface and 12 ground water samples were collected during the pre-monsoon (March-2015) and have been analyzed for various physico-chemical parameters as per standard procedures. Results were compared with the standards as prescribed by World Health Organization (WHO, 2006) for drinking purpose. Results indicate that almost all the 14 water samples are of poor quality and unfit for drinking purpose.
