Abstract:
Ground water and surface water play a vital role in domestic usage and irrigation purpose. To assess the quality of groundwater & surface water and to characterize the hydro chemical characteristics of the groundwater in Bareilly Uttar Pradesh, water samples were collected from different villages Province and analysed for water quality parameters. The following ten parameters have been considered viz. pH, EC, TDS, Turbidity, Acidity, Alkalinity, Hardness, Ca⁺⁺, Mg⁺⁺, Cl, Cl₂, Na, K, P, SO₄, N, N-NO₂, N-NO₃ N-NH₃. These parameters are used to determine the quality of groundwater by comparing the quality of drinking water standards permissible limit. The study yielded that in most of villages of Bareilly District province area the water samples are suitable for irrigation and agriculture purposes
