dc.description.abstract	The water of Khandepar has been used for irrigation and for domestic supply. As the river passes through the mining belts the effluents get mixed with it. The mixing of the domestic sewage, transport of mining ores by the barges, industrial wastes deteriorate the water quality. The Khandepar river showed peak alkalinity in January and peak chlorinity in April and the water was very hard in summer. The water was acidic throughout the study period. It also had high sulphates, phosphates and nitrates.
