| Abstract: | In this modern era there is a huge decline in fresh water resources that may be due to the industrialization, urbanization, increase in population and many other anthropogenic activities. Scarcity of the surface water makes people to depend on ground water resources for their needs. Utilization of ground water resources in an unsustainable manner has left the resource with distorted quality at many regions. In this study we attempt to assess the ground water quality of Villianur which is a rapidly developing town in Puducherry Union Territory of India. Water quality of the study area was determined using the Water Quality Index (WQI) by Weighted Arithmetic Mean Index Method. pH, Electrical Conductivity, Total Hardness, Total Alkalinity, Turbidity, Total Dissolved Solids, Fluoride and Iron were the water quality parameters used for the calculation of WQI. Five ground water samples were taken for the study and the WQI of them showed as 60.67, 28.16, 206.32, 69.32 and 115.80 respectively. The results indicate that there is deterioration in ground water quality of the region. |
