Abstract

Groundwater is one of the major resources of drinking water in Khora village in Neemkathana, Sikar. In the present study groundwater quality of the selected Village, nearby Neemkathana Block was taken for investigation by groundwater samples collected by hand pump and assessed for suitability for human consumption. Physico-chemical parameters pH, total alkalinity, total hardness, chloride, fluoride, nitrate, sulphate, and total dissolved solid (TDS) selected for estimation and compared with BIS (IS 10500:2012) during different months of the pre-monsoon, monsoon, and post-monsoon seasons in Jan-2017–Dec-2017.
