5.1 Methods
A total number of 50 representative groundwater samples collected in well points from different parts of the
study area (Fig.1a) during pre-monsoon period (April-2012) to determine water quality parameters (Table.2). The
experimental values are compared with standard values recommended by World Health Organization (WHO) and
Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) (Table.3). Current groundwater quality scenarios are the necessary tasks for the
effective and efficient implementation of water management programs. Within India, several groundwater related
studies have been conducted to determine potential sites for groundwater evaluation by Satyanarayanan et al.
