Assessment of physico-chemical parameters of water in four places in Pulankurichi of Sivagangai district was carried out. Water samples from one bore-well and three open-ponds were collected and analysed. The chemical quality was compared with the drinking water quality standards. Several parameters like pH, turbidity, electrical conductivity, chloride, sulphate, total hardness, alkalinity, total dissolved solids, dissolved oxygen and BOD were analysed. The results of the study indicate that groundwater quality in the study area is suitable for drinking purpose.

Several parameters like pH, turbidity, electrical conductivity, chloride, sulphate, total hardness, alkalinity, total dissolved solids, dissolved oxygen and BOD were analysed. The results of the study indicate that groundwater quality in the study area is suitable for drinking purpose.
