Abstract: Water is the most precious and essential part of existence. Its availability in terms of quality and quantity has become the need of the hour. Water being a non-replaceable commodity it is very important to monitor and keep a note of its quality levels. Safe drinking water means that it is free from all kinds of pathogenic micro-organisms poisonous substances, organic matter, color, turbidity, suspended particles, etc. Present research makes an effort to analyze the physico-chemical characteristics of water samples from different sites of Allahabad in the Ganga region where the dependency is mainly on groundwater. The water quality parameters like pH, TDS, EC, DO, BOD, Turbidity, Total hardness, Total alkalinity, and chloride were studied. From the study it was observed that most water samples were within the range of permissible limits as required by BIS specifications but some area of Ganga region water quality is deteriorated.
