dilution with other water; microbiological, chemical, and physical degradation. For
other parameters such as TDS, total hardness, anions, and cations of well water
is more than that of the river water because the water in the well is mixture of
river water (having lower TDS, cations, anions, hardness), and ground water (having
higher TDS, cations, anions, and hardness). The aquifer bed at Tel river is found to
