Subscribe/Renew Journal
The India’s land ends or the tip of the peninsular India also referred as land of ThrivenySangamam is our Kanyakumari. It is also popularly known as Cape Comorin is supposed to be a famous pilgrim centre and a beach resort. The nearby town, administrative headquarters of Kanyakumari district is Nagercoil. This town is famous for many temples. Thousands of devotees visit various temples here and make bath in temple pond water to get rid of their sins. In this study we have taken effort water samples from three different locations namely, Vishnukoil, Krishnankoil and Nagarajakoil to understand the physico-chemical properties such temple ponds. Analysis of various samples significantly resulted in varied reports on pH, Electrical conductivity, Total dissolved solids, Hardness, chloride, sodium, and potassium.
Keywords
Water Analysis, Nagarajakoil, Devotees, Physico-Chemical Properties.
