Abstract

Water is one of the utmost important constituents on earth. This study is based on physicochemical water quality parameters (pH, EC, TDS, TH, Ca2+ Mg2+, Na+, K+, F-, Cl- NO3-SO42-) biological Parameters (BOD, COD, DO) and calculation of water quality index to assess the water quality of a four sampling sites like Muhana (S1), Vatika (S2), Shivdaspura (S3) and Tiwadi (S4) of Jaipur (Rajasthan, India). Statistical analysis had been used to calculate the correlation coefficient of different parameters with WQI and determine the Irrigational nature of ground water. Among these parameters, EC has the highest positive correlation with Na+, Cl-, F- ion concentration whereas as TDS show strong negative correlation with Ca2+.
