Abstract :

The present study deals with the analysis of physicochemical parameters such as pH, temperature, color, turbidity, alkalinity, hardness, sulphate, chloride, fluoride, nitrate, phosphate, total suspended solids, total dissolved solids, dissolved oxygen and biochemical oxygen demand and faecal coliforms in water samples of Mansi Ganga, Radha and Shyam kunds in Govardhan at Mathura. The mean value, standard deviation and percentage of coefficient of variance were computed for each parameter and compared with standards stated by World Health Organization (WHO). On comparison, parameters such as color, turbidity, hardness, sulphate, chloride, BOD and COD exceed the WHO limits for all the kunds. Water Quality Index was also calculated to detect the overall water quality. The WQI was found between 45–49 which denotes poor water quality indicating requirement of treatment before consumption and recreational purposes.
