Results of the analyses indicate that Na is dominant cation and its concentration is relatively higher in pre-monsoon season, which may be attributed to negative index of base-exchange, whereas HCO is dominant anion. 3 Various chemical parameters such as sodium absorption ratio, residual sodium carbonate, percentage of sodium, magnesium ratio, Kelly's ratio and corrosivity ratio were computed. Most of the water is of Na-K-HCO type. All the samples plot under the rock dominance zone in 3 Gibb's diagram. The USSL classification shows that water of the study area belongs to C-S , C-S and C-S classes. This study indicates that 2 1 3 1 3 2 most of the water is suitable for drinking as per World Health Organisation (WHO) and Indian Standards (ISI) and unsuitable for irrigation due to the higher concentration o...
