due to contamination for human consumption and may cause health hazards [34]. Acharya et

al 2018 South West Delhi, India performed groundwater quality assessment by WQI for
irrigation and drinking [35]. Rawat et al 2019, performed assessment of quality of water

samples collected from several location of Allahabad [36]. Karunanidhi, D et al 2021
performed assessment of the affect of COVID-19 lockdown and monsson cycle on

groundwater pollution in an industrialised southern Indian region [37].

CONCLUSION
The quality of water depends on the type of source and type of contaminants introduced. The

physicochemical properties of water samples can be estimated by various standard
approaches. Maintaining water quality is of utmost necessity with the growing population.

The WQI should be monitored at regular intervals to avoid population from fatal diseases.
