Abstract

To assess the suitability in relation to drinking water purpose fifteen ground water samples have been collected in and around Musheerabad area. The physico chemical parameters like pH, Conductivity, total dissolved solids (TDS), calcium (Ca2+),magnesium (Mg2+), sodium (Na+), potassium (K+), bicarbonate (HCO32- ) chloride (Cl-), fluoride(F-) sulphate (SO42-) and nitrate (NO3-) were analyzed using standard methods to know the groundwater quality. Except for fluoride and nitrates, values of most of these parameters fall within prescribed limits for drinking purpose (BIS:2012).
