Abstract

Underground water quality at six tahsils (Badalapur, Shahganj, Jaunpur (Sadar), Kerakat, Mariahu and Machhalisahar) of Jaunpur district with reference to different physic chemical parameters are analysed using standard method of sampling and estimation. Calculated underground water quality index indicates that ground water is good in quality at five sites and is some polluted at one site of the study. Calculated results are similar to the estimated values. Present study is one step ahead in the field of environmental studies. People exposed to polluted water are prone to health hazards and underground water quality management is urgently needed.
