  • In recent 20 years the environmental issues regarding environmental problem like hazardous waste, global climate change, stratospheric ozone depletion, groundwater contamination, disaster mitigation and removal of pollutant have become the focus of environmental attention. In this Dissertation work the quality of ground waters from Indiranagar Gorakhpur and its environs was conducted between December, 2016 to March, 2017. This study was undertaken to determine physical and chemical parameter of ground water sources (shallow and deep hand pump) in Indiranagar Gorakhpur, is as a result physical parameters (pH, Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), Electrical Conductivity (E.C), Temperature, turbidity) and chemical parameters (Alkalinity, total Hardness, Acidity, chloride, fluoride) in water resources were determined. Water samples were collected from 10 sampling points including 7 shallow hand pumps and 3 deep hand pumps (India mark hand pump). The result was compared with WHO, and IS: 10500-2012 standards. The usefulness of these parameters (Physico-chemical) in predicting ground water quality characteristics were studied. Thus an attempt has been made to find the quality of ground water in Indiranagar area of Gorakhpur suitable for drinking purposes or not, and what its impact on human health.
