Seasonal Variation and Comparative Analysis of Drinking Water Quality in Modasa Tehsil, Aravalli District

This study evaluates the physicochemical quality of drinking water samples collected from ten villages of Modasa Tehsil, Aravalli district, Gujarat.Two batches of samples were collected in different seasons (November and March) to assess seasonal variation.Parameters analyzed include colour, odour, pH, conductivity, total dissolved solids (TDS), and alkalinity.Results were compared against IS:10500 standards for drinking water.Findings indicate that most parameters fall within desirable limits, though some samples show elevated TDS and conductivity.The study highlights the importance of continuous monitoring and community awareness to ensure safe drinking water.
