EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The water quality data on rivers, lakes, ponds, tanks and groundwater locations being monitored
under the network is evaluated against the water quality criteria and the monitoring locations in
exceedence with respect to one or more parameters are identified as polluted and require action
for restoration of water quality. The locations on rivers, lakes, ponds, tanks and groundwater not
meeting the criteria are summarized briefly in this chapter.
The monitoring results obtained during 2012 indicate that organic pollution continues to be the
predominant pollution of aquatic resources.The organic pollution measured in terms of biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) & Coliform bacterial count gives the indication of extent of
water quality degradation in different parts of our country. It is observed that nearly 63% of the
observations are having BOD less than 3 mg/l, 19% between 3-6 mg/l & 18% above 6 mg/l.
Similarly Total & Faecal coliform which indicate presence of pathogens in water are also a
major concern. About 50% observations are having Total Coliforms and 65% observations are
having Faecal Coliform less than 500 MPN /100 ml.

WATER AVAILABILITY, POLLUTION AND WATER QUALITY CRITERIA
1.1

Availability of Water Resources

The availability and the quality of the fresh water resources is the most pressing of the many
environmental challenges on the national horizon in India. The stress on water resources is from
multiple sources and the impacts can take diverse forms. Geometric increase in population
coupled with rapid urbanization, industrialization and agricultural development has resulted in
high impact on quality and quantity of water in India. The urban population has increased almost
11 fold in last 100 year period from 26 million to 285 million. Its share in total population has
also increased almost 3 fold from 10.84% in 1901 to 28.5% in 2001, which indicates faster
growth of urban population. One of the conspicuous features of urbanization in India is the
skewed distribution of population with as much 28.3% of urban population in 35 metro cities
alone. Unregulated growth of urban areas, particularly over the last two decades, without
infrastructural services for proper collection, transportation, treatment and disposal of domestic
wastes led to increased pollution & health hazards. The municipalities and such other civic
authorities have not been able to cope up with this massive task which could be attributed to
various reasons including erosion of authority, inability to raise revenues and inadequate
managerial capabilities. That is why it became necessary to launch the Ganga Action Plan and
subsequently the National River Action Plan, which is essentially addressed to the task of
trapping, diversion and treatment of municipal wastewater.The situation warrants immediate
redressal through radically improved water resource and water quality management strategies.
The availability of freshwater resources is declining in India on per capita basis due to increase
in population decades from 345 million during 1947 to 1130 million during 2007 in six decades.
Depletion of available freshwater resources, falling ground water levels and deteriorating water
quality are all posing a variety of challenges in managing Indias water resources. Competing
demands from the diversified needs of a growing population are quite often leading towards
disputes among users. The per capita water availability in India is raising concerns. The annual
per capita availability of renewable freshwater in the country has fallen from around 6042 cubic
meters in 1947 to 1845 cubic meters in 2007.Given in projected increase in population by the
end of 21st century, the per capita availability is likely to drop below 1000 cubic meters a
situation labeled as water scarcity.From the East to the West and from the North to the South,
water has defined life in the Indian subcontinent for thousands of years. On an average, the
combination of rainfall, surface and groundwater resources have been sufficient in providing
adequate water to the Indian population. Rise in demand and development pressures are
changing the characteristics of water in India. Erosion in the watershed due to the fast growing
development and poor land management practices is increasing siltation and changing stream
hydraulics. Groundwater reserves are becoming more and more depleted as surface water
sources have become too polluted for human use.

13

Water security is emerging as an increasingly important and vital issue for India. Many Indian
cities are beginning to experience moderate to severe water shortages, brought on by the
simultaneous effects of agricultural growth, industrialization and urbanization. These shortages
would be further aggravated by receding of glaciers and dwindling fresh water resources.
Population stress, irrigation requirements and industrialization are the major pressures for water
insecurity. The environmental challenges of water resource development and management in
India are expected to manifest themselves more explicitly and rapidly in the coming years. These
environmental challenges may be addressed through four broad approaches (1) Improving
efficiencies and minimizing losses (2) Recharging groundwater aquifers (3) Abatement and
treatment of water pollution (4) Reuse and recycling of wastewater.
Water security is emerging as an increasingly important and vital issue for India. Many Indian
cities are beginning to experience moderate to severe water shortages, brought on by the
simultaneous effects of agricultural growth, industrialization and urbanization. Another concern
in the region is the growing competition over shared water resources.Conflict over freshwater
resources can strain relationships between various states sharing these resources.
The two main sources of fresh water in India are rainfall and the snowmelt of glaciers in the
Himalaya. Although reliable data on the snow cover in India is not available, it is estimated that
some 5,000 glaciers cover about 43,000 sq. km in the Himalayas with a total volume of locked
water estimated at 3,870 km3. Considering that about 10,000 sq. km of this is located in Indian
Territory, the total water yield from snowmelt contributing to the river run-off in India may be of
the order of 200 km3/year. India receives an average annual precipitation of approximately 4,000
bcm in the form of rainfall and snow. After accounting for percolation, evaporation and other
losses, less than 50 per cent (1,869 bcm) is the total surface flow, including regenerating flow
from groundwater and the flow from neighbouring countries. In view of the constraints of
topography, uneven distribution over space and time, water storage technologies, and inter-state
issues, the total utilizable quantity of water is estimated to be 1,122 bcm/year, of which 690 bcm
and 431 bcm are utilizable surface and groundwater, respectively.
1.1.1

Irrigation Requirement

In India, the primary use of water other than the domestic is for agriculture. As more food will be
needed in the future to feed the growing population, there will be greater demands placed on the
regions water supply. Requirement is likely to increase in future as agriculture is extremely
dependent on adequate freshwater supply. About half of the water that is used for irrigation is
lost to seepage and evaporation. Irrigation is also a major concern for India as over 30 per cent of
the total cropland is under irrigation. While irrigation is vital for increasing crop yields, it can
also be extremely dangerous when mismanaged and could result in erosion, water-logging and
salinization of the soil, rendering it less productive or uncultivable. Poorly managed irrigation
can also result in water pollution and spread of water-borne diseases.
1.1.2

Industrial Requirement

Another important factor that influences the state of water security in India, is the extent of
industrialization. In India, the maximum utilization was 5 per cent in 2000 (FAO 2000).
14

Industrial activity requires large amounts of freshwater for activities such as boiling, cleaning,
air-conditioning, cooling, processing, transportation and energy production. As the country
rapidly industrializes, greater quantities of water will be required.The positive side of this trend
is that water used in industrial processes can be recycled, unlike in agriculture where very little
of it is actually consumed.
1.1.3

Municipal Requirement

The water policy has ranked the requirement of water for drinking purposes as prime. It is
estimated that about 50 billion litres of municipal water is required every day based on the
population figures of urban India which is about 360 million. The urban population may exceed
over 800 million by the year 2050 and the resultant municipal water requirement will be of the
magnitude of over 110 billion litres per day. Besides the requirement of rural population (1.1
billion) shall be about 44 billion litres per day for the year 2050.
1.2

Climate Change

In the context of anticipated global warming due to increasing atmospheric greenhouse gases, it
is necessary to evaluate the possible impact on freshwater resources of the country. Potential
impacts of global warming on water resources include enhanced evaporation, geographical
changes in precipitation intensity, duration and frequency (together affecting the average runoff), soil moisture, and the frequency and severity of droughts and floods. Future projections
using climate models point to an increase in the monsoon rainfall in most parts of India, with
increasing greenhouse gases and sulphate aerosols. Relatively small climatic changes can have
huge impact on water resources, particularly in arid and semi-arid regions such as North-West
India. This will have impacts on agriculture, drinking water, and on generation of hydroelectric
power, resulting in limited water supply and land degradation. Apart from monsoon rains, India
uses perennial rivers which originate in the Hindukush and Himalayan ranges and depend on
glacial melt-waters. Since the melting season coincides with the summer monsoon season, any
intensification of the monsoon is likely to contribute to flood disasters in the Himalayan
catchment. Rising temperatures will also contribute to a rise in the snowline, reducing the
capacity of these natural reservoirs, and increasing the risk of flash floods during the wet season.
Increase in temperatures can lead to increased eutrophication in wetlands and fresh water
supplies.
1.3

Current and Future Water Requirements

In 1990, the total water withdrawal was estimated at 552 bcm i.e. 30 per cent of the country's
renewable water resources (1869 bcm). The contribution from surface water was 362 bcm, while
the groundwater withdrawal was estimated at 190 bcm. Approximately 460 bcm was used for
irrigation while 25 bcm was used for domestic needs. About 19 bcm and 15 bcm were used for
energy and industrial purposes respectively. Currently, more than 80 per cent of the 750 bcm
water used in India is for irrigation. The balance 20 per cent is used to meet domestic, energy,
industrial and other requirements. With the rapidly growing population, along with industrial and
urbanization activities, the demand for water is expected to increase even faster. Estimates
indicate that by the year 2025, the total water demand of 1050 bcm will be very close to the total
15

utilizable water resources of 1,122 bcm in the country. Though projections are not available
beyond 2025, it is evident that the country may have to face an acute water crisis unless clear and
strategic measures are adopted now. It is pertinent to note that more attention is also required to
scientifically assess the water requirements for ecosystems security. Today, approximately 40
per cent (748 bcm) of available water resources is considered to be unutilizable due to a variety
of factors. Probably, this is a blessing in disguise since that water must be catering to the
requirements of the ecosystems.
1.3.1

Temporal Distribution

Almost 80 per cent of the rainfall occurs in the four monsoon months from June to September.
Even within these four months, most of the rainfall occurs as few spells of intense rain. It is
estimated that in Himalayan Rivers, where there is some flow due to snowmelt also, about 80 per
cent of the total annual flow takes place within these four monsoon months. In peninsular rivers,
where there is no contribution from snowmelt, monsoon flow accounts for more than 90 per cent
of the annual flow. In this context, retention and storage of water becomes imperative. More
important is the scale at which retention or storage activities are undertaken. Large dams have
their fair share of adverse social and environmental impacts, besides causing conflicts between
riparian States. In today's context, large storage structures may be attempted only after their
benefits are weighed carefully against their social and ecological costs. On the other hand, the
country has large numbers of traditional water harvesting structures. Unfortunately, most of them
are dilapidated, silted or have been encroached upon due to the breakdown of the traditional
community-based management systems and neglect by the concerned departments. Revival of
these traditional water harvesting structures, coupled with modern watershed management
systems including large scale afforestation and regeneration of degraded lands (covering 30 per
cent of the country), small structures like check dams, gully plugs and other systems can
significantly enhance the surface water retention and storage capacity and also recharge the
groundwater aquifers.
1.3.2

Spatial Distribution

Precipitation in India is not uniformly distributed and varies from less than 100 mm/year in
Rajasthan to more than 2,500 mm/year in Assam. Consequently, despite the current availability,
water is not evenly distributed or used around the country. Brahmaputra and Barak basin, with
7.3 per cent of the geographical area and 4.2 per cent of the country's population, have 31 per
cent of the annual water resources.
1.4 Population Stress and water insecurity
India's population is around 1.21 billion as on 1st March, 2011. The population of India is
expected to stabilize at around 1,640 million by the year 2050. As a result, gross per capita water
availability will decline from 1,820 m3/ yr in 2001 to as low as 1,140 m3/yr in 2050. Total water
requirement of the country for various activities around the year 2050 has been estimated to be
1,450 km3/yr. This is significantly more than the current estimate of utilizable water resource
potential (1,122 km3/yr) through conventional development strategies. Therefore, when
compared with the availability of approximately 500 km3/yr at present, the water availability
16

Around 2050 needs to be almost trebled. Various options have been considered, in quantitative
terms, as possible sources to augment the anticipated deficit. It is argued that due to
considerations of gestation period and capital requirements, rainwater harvesting and waterconservation measures must receive the highest priority, followed by renovation and recycling to
be followed by intra-basin and then inter-basin transfers in the last phase. But, investigations and
planning processes for all options must begin immediately.
The environmental challenges of water resources development and management in India are
expected to manifest themselves more explicitly and rapidly in the coming years. These
environmental challenges may be addressed through four broad approaches: Improving
efficiencies and minimizing losses, Recharging groundwater aquifers, Abatement and treatment
of pollution, Reuse and recycling of wastewater, Due to the complexity and urgency of the
environmental challenges, these approaches need to be simultaneously pursued. However, it is
evident that an essential prerequisite for water and human security is ecological security. Hence,
water resource planning in India has to urgently estimate the requirements of water for
ecosystem security. In each of these approaches, appropriate policy, institutional, technological
and economic interventions and instruments may be adopted. Most of these instruments have
fortunately been tried or tested at least on a pilot scale in India. The challenge is to
institutionalize systems for these interventions and instruments to work on a large scale.
1.5 Water Needs of Ecosystem
The water needs of ecosystems are not always recognized, since many people do not regard
water for eco-systems as a social and economic use. Yet, access to fresh water is an indisputable
need for the maintenance and functioning of valuable ecosystems and landscapes in which
human activities are an integral part. Ecosystems are also important in securing human health,
because they provide services that are fundamental to our life support systems such as pest
control and detoxification and decomposition of waste. They contribute to the production of food
(crops and fish), medicines and other goods. They provide water treatment, recreation and
waterway transport. Also, terrestrial ecosystems help balance rainwater infiltration, ground water
recharge and river flow regimes.
Accelerating population growth and unsustainable consumption and production patterns have
increased the demand for water.In the greater competition for water, ecosystems and biodiversity
tend to be the losers. But people are the losers too. Activities that reduce biodiversity jeopardize
economic development and human health through losses of useful materials, genetic stocks, and
potential medicines. As ecosystems and biodiversity get degraded, their ability to lend resilience
to the biosphere declines, and communities and human health suffer. The decline in the quantity
and quality of water flow has reduced the productivity of many terrestrial, aquatic, and coastal
zone ecosystems and led to loss of biodiversity. In remote areas, the degradation of ecosystems
has devastated fishing, agriculture, and grazing and undermined the survival potential of rural
communities relying on these activities.

17

Against a national per capita annual availability of 2,208 m3 of water, the average availability in
Brahmaputra and Barak is as high as 16,589 m3, while it is as low as 360 m3 in the Sabarmati
basin. The per capita annual water availability for the rest of the country, excluding Brahmaputra
and Barak basin, works out to about 1,583 m3.3.1).
Water availability less than 1,000 m3 per capita is considered by international agencies as
indicating scarcity conditions.Cauvery, Pennar, Sabarmati, east flowing rivers and west flowing
rivers are some of the basins with scarcity conditions. In majority of river basins, current
utilization is significantly high and is in the range of 50-95 per cent of utilizable surface
resources. But, in rivers such as Narmada and Mahanadi, percentage utilization is only 23 and 34
per cent respectively. In several basins, there is also an overdrawal of groundwater leading to
lowering of groundwater tables and even salt water incursions. If the average national per capita
availability of 2,000 m3 is to be maintained, given the bourgeoning population, the only river in
North India with significant surplus water to meet future needs of the country is the
Brahmaputra. Since Bangladesh also draws water from this river, it may not be easily possible to
tap its full potential. In peninsular India, the Godavari, Brahmani, Mahanadi and Narmada,
besides regions of Tapti and Tadri may have surplus water. Inter-linking of rivers has been
proposed to address the spatial challenge of water availability. Besides its questionable technoeconomic feasibility, the associated ecological damages of river linking may be irreversible.
While at the country level, there may not appear to be an immediate problem of water
availability, several basins (e.g. Sabarmati) are already under severe stress and face scarcity
situations. With increasing demands, the situation is only going to be aggravated unless
appropriate basin level measures are attempted now.
1.6 Water Pollution
The key challenges to better management of the water quality in India are temporal and spatial
variation of rainfall, uneven geographic distribution of surface water resources, persistent
droughts, overuse of ground water and contamination, drainage & salinisation and water quality
problems due to treated, partially treated and untreated wastewater from urban settlements,
industrial establishments and runoff from irrigation sector besides poor management of
municipal solid waste and animal dung in rural areas.
It is estimated that about 38,000 million litres per day (mld) of wastewater are generated in the
urban centres having population more than 50,000 in India (housing more than 70% of urban
population). The municipal wastewater treatment capacity developed so far in India is about
11,000 mld accounting for 29% of wastewater generation in these two classes of urban centers.
In view of population increase, demand of freshwater for all the uses will be unmanageable. It is
estimated that the projected wastewater from urban centres may cross 1,00,000 mld by 2050 and
the rural India will also generate not less than 50,000 mld in view of water supply designs for
community supplies in rural areas. However, waste water management is not addresses to that
pace.
Most human activities whether domestic, agricultural or industrial have an impact on water and
the ecosystems. World Health Organization statistics indicate that half of India's morbidity is
water related. Water borne diseases can be, to a large extent, controlled by managing human
18

consumption and production patterns. It is therefore pertinent to have an understanding of human

activities, including water management initiatives, and their impacts on water and the
environment.
1.6.1

Domestic Water Pollution

Waste management systems have not been able to keep pace with the huge volumes of organic
and non-biodegradable wastes generated daily. As a consequence, garbage in most parts of India
is unscientifically disposed and ultimately leads to increase in the pollutant load of surface and
groundwater courses. On the other hand, the large population of the poor in India does not have
much choice but to live off the natural resource base and pollute the environment in the process.
They deforest for food, fuel, fodder and fibre and pollute the water sources on which they
depend, since they cannot afford access to sanitation services. Domestic water use today, though
a small fraction of the total water requirement, is under-priced for political reasons. This leads to
a considerable waste of the precious resource and inadequate revenues for operation and
maintenance. Low revenues result in deterioration of the supply infrastructure and further loss of
the resource due to system inefficiencies. In most parts of the country, waste water from
domestic sources is hardly treated, due to inadequate sanitation facilities. This waste water,
containing highly organic pollutant load, finds its way into surface and groundwater courses,
very often close to dense pockets of human habitation from where further water is drawn for use.
Considerable investments will be required to install treatment systems in at least the 500 major
cities and towns of the country. Coupled with investment requirements, are the difficulties of
mobilizing consumers to pay for centralized systems. Estimates indicate that it is viable to set up
decentralized treatment systems for clusters of approximately 100 to 200 households where it is
possible to convince users to pay for efficient services. Incentives like soft loans may be
provided to these initiatives.
1.6.2

Industrial Water Pollution

The Industrial sector, contributing to about 20 per cent of the national income, accounts for about
8 per cent of the current water use. With rapid industrialization and urbanization, the water
requirement for energy and industrial use is estimated to rise to about 18 per cent (191 bcm) of
the total requirements in 2025. Poor environmental management systems, especially in industries
such as thermal power stations, chemicals, metals and minerals, leather processing and sugar
mills, have led to discharge of highly toxic and organic wastewater. This has resulted in pollution
of the surface and groundwater sources from which water is also drawn for irrigation and
domestic use.The enforcement of regulations regarding discharge of industrial wastewater and
limits to extraction of groundwater needs to be considerably strengthened, while more incentives
are required for promoting waste water reuse and recycling.
1.6.3

Agricultural Water Pollution

Two-thirds of India's farm production comes from one-third of its land which is irrigated. The
rest is from rainfed areas that employ large populations. In order to meet the increasing demand
for food and farm employment, India has to increase the area under irrigation, and enhance
productivity in both irrigated and rainfed areas. For the agricultural sector, water and electricity
19

for irrigation are subsidized for political reasons. This leads to wasteful flood irrigation rather
than adoption of more optimal practices such as sprinkler and drip irrigation. Cropping patterns
and farming practices also do not necessarily encourage the judicious use of water. Conservative
estimates indicate that the same quantity of irrigation water used today can irrigate double the
current area with optimized irrigation and farming practices. With limited revenues and
budgetary support, the state engineering departments are unable to operate and maintain the
irrigation systems efficiently, leading to increasing deterioration of the structures and systems
over time. Consequently, there are further water losses due to breaches and seepage, resulting in
water logging and salinity. Water quality is further affected due to the overuse of chemical
fertilizers and pesticides.
1.7Approach to Water Quality Management and Water Quality Criteria
The water quality management in India is accomplished under the provision of Water (Prevention
and Control of Pollution) Act, 1974. The basic objective of this Act is to maintain and restore the
wholesomeness of national aquatic resources by prevention and control of pollution.It was
considered ambitious to maintain or restore all natural water body at pristine level. Planning
pollution control activities to attain such a goal is bound to be deterrent to developmental activities
and cost prohibitive. Since the natural water bodies have got to be used for various competing as
well as conflicting demands, the objective is aimed at restoring and/or maintaining natural water
bodies or their parts to such a quality as needed for their best uses.
Thus, a concept of designated best use (DBU) was developed. According to this concept, out of
several uses a water body is put to, the use which demands highest quality of water is termed as
designated best use, and accordingly the water body is designated. Primary water quality criteria
for different uses have been identified. A summary of the use based classification system is
presented in Table 1.1.

The water resources of the country were classified according to their designated best uses and a
Water Use Map was prepared. In order to identify the water bodies or their parts where water
quality is at variance with water quality criteria, it was felt important to measure water quality of
that water body or its part. It would help in preparation of Water Quality Map of India. The idea
was to superimpose Water Quality Map on Water Use Map to identify the water bodies or their
parts, which are in need of improvement (restoration). Subsequently through a wide network of
water quality monitoring, water quality data are acquired. A large number of water bodies were
identified as polluted stretches for taking appropriate measures to restore their water quality. Today
almost all policies and programmes on water quality management are based on this concept
including the Ganga Action Plan and National River Action Plans.

Forests (MoEF) and is given in Table 1.2.

CHAPTER-II
WATER QUALITY MONITORING IN INDIA
2.1

National Water Quality Monitoring Programme

The Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) has established a network of monitoring stations on
aquatic resources across the country. The monitoring of water quality initiated during 1977-78 under
Global Environmental Monitoring System (GEMS) and gradually increased the network to cover all
the aquatic resources. The year wise growth of monitoring network is depicted in Graph 2.1.
Graph 2. 1: Year Wise Growth of Monitoring Network

2.2

Objectives of Water Quality Monitoring

The preamble of Water (prevention and control of pollution) Act, 1974 stated that pollution control
board both at States and Central level to restore and maintain the wholesomeness of water bodies in
India.Water quality monitoring is therefore an imperative prerequisite in order to assess the extent
of maintainance and restoration of water bodies.The water quality monitoring is performed with
following main objectives in mind.

Rational planning of pollution control strategies and their prioritisation

To assess nature and extent of pollution control needed in different water bodies or their
part

To evaluate effectiveness of pollution control measures already in existence

To evaluate water quality trend over a period of time

To assess assimilative capacity of a water body thereby reducing cost on pollution control

To understand the environmental fate of different pollutants

To assess the fitness of water for different uses

Monitoring Network, Parameters and Frequency

The present network comprises of 2500 stations in 28 States and 6 Union Territories spread over the
country. The monitoring network covers 445 Rivers, 154 Lakes, 12 Tanks, 78 Ponds, 41
Creeks/Seawater, 25 Canals, 45 Drains, 10 Water Treatment Plant (Raw Water) and 807 Wells.
Among the 2500 stations, 1275 are on rivers, 190 on lakes, 45 on drains, 41 on canals, 12 on
tanks, 41 on creeks/seawater, 79 on ponds, 10 Water Treatment Plant (Raw Water) and 807 are
groundwater stations (Table 2.1).Presently the inland water quality-monitoring network is operated
under a three-tier programme i.e. Global Environmental Monitoring System (GEMS), Monitoring
of Indian National Aquatic Resources System (MINARS) and Yamuna Action Plan (YAP).The
water samples are analysed for 9 core parameters and 19 general parameters. The monitoring
agencies have also analysed the trace metals at few locations. The list of parameters identified under
the National Water Quality Monitoring Programme is given in Table 2.2. The monitoring is done on
monthly basis in surface waters comprising of Rivers, lakes, tanks, ponds, creeks/sea water, canals
& drains and on half yearly basis in case of ground water. The frequency of monitoring stations in
each State/Union Territory is given in Table 2.3.In the present report data on core parameters is
incorporated for interpretation and drawing inferences based on primary water quality criteria.

State/Union Territory (UT) Level - Water Quality

The water quality monitoring and its management are governed at State/Union Territory level in
India. The monitoring network covers 28 States and 6 Union Territories. Distribution of Water
Quality Monitoring Stations on State/Union Territory/Water body is presented in Table 2.4.The
assessment of water quality through monitoring, analysis of samples and processing of data with
respect to water quality criteria provides glimpse of compliance for particular parameter. The
aquatic resources monitored for water quality at State/UT level are assessed for compliance of
pollutants to their desired levels such as pH, Conductivity, Dissolved Oxygen, Bio chemical
Oxygen Demand, Total Coliform and Fecal Coliform. The statewise assessment is summarised
in para 2.4.1 to 2.4.30 and presented in Annexure-I.

WATER QUALITY TREND IN INDIA
3.1

Water Quality Trend

The water quality monitoring results obtained during 1995 to 2012 indicate that the organic and
bacterial contamination are continued to be critical in water bodies. This is mainly due to
discharge of domestic wastewater mostly in untreated form from the urban centres of the
country. The municipal corporations at large are not able to treat increasing load of municipal
sewage flowing into water bodies without treatment. Secondly the receiving water bodies also do
not have adequate water for dilution. Therefore, the oxygen demand and bacterial pollution is
increasing day by day.
The water quality monitoring results were analysed with respect to indicator of oxygen
consuming substances (Bio-chemical Oxygen Demand) and indicator of pathogenic bacteria
(Total coliform and Faecal coliform). The result of such analysis shows that there is gradual
degradation in water quality. The number of observations having BOD and Coliform density has
increased during 1995 to 2012. The water quality status for the period 1995 to 2012 in terms of
number of observations having values of parameters in different ranges are given in the figure 2
to figure 4.
3.2 Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD)
The numbers of observed BOD values less than 3 mg/l were between 57-69% during year 1995
to 2012. The maximum value of 69% was observed during 2007. It was observed that there was
a gradual decrease in number of observations having BOD < 3.
The number of observed BOD values ranges from 3-6 mg/l was between 17-28% during year
1995 to 2012, the maximum value of 28% was observed in the year 1998. It was observed that
there was a gradual decrease in number of observations having BOD between 3-6 mg/l.
The numbers of observed BOD value> 6 mg/l were between 13 and 19% during year 1995-2012
and the maximum value of 19% was observed in the year 2001 and 2002. It was observed that
there was a gradual decrease and in 2012 the percentage observation was 18 % having BOD >6.

Figure 2: Water Quality Trend (BOD, mg/l)

3.3 Total Coliform (TC)

The numbers of observed TC values < 500 MPN/100 ml were between 44-63% during 19952012. The highest percentage of observations was observed as 63% in year 1999 which
decreases to 50% during 2012.
The numbers of observed TC values ranges from 500-5000 were between 28-39% during year
1995-2012 the maximum value of 39% was observed in 2010. The numbers of observed TC
values > 5000 were between 9-24% during year 1995-2012. Minimum value of 9% was observed
during the year 1999. The maximum value of 24% was observed in the year 2006. During 2012
it was observed as 14% indicating decreasing trend.
Figure 3: Water Quality Trend (Total Colliform, MPN/100 ml)

3.4 Faecal Coliform (FC)

The numbers of observed FC values <500 MPN/100 ml was between 48-70% during year 19952012. The maximum value of 70% was observed in the year 2009.
42

The numbers of observed FC values ranges from 500-5000 MPN/100 ml was between 20-35%
during year 1995 to 2012. The maximum value of 35% was observed in the year 1999, which
decreases to 21% in the year 2012.
The numbers of observed FC values > 5000 MPN/100 ml was between 7-21% during year 19952012. The maximum value of 21% was observed in 2006, which decreases to 10% in the year

Observed Water Quality

Water Quality of Rivers at a Glance

The monitoring results obtained during 2012 under National Water Quality Monitoring
Programme reflect that organic matter & bacterial population of faecal origin continue to
dominate the water pollution problem in India. The major water quality concerns as revealed
from the monitoring results are pathogenic pollution as reflected through indicators i.e. Total
Coliforms (TC) & Faecal Coliform (FC), organic matter as reflected through Biochemical
Oxygen Demand (BOD) and salinity as reflected through conductivity. The observed range of
water quality parameters in major Indian rivers for the year 2012 along with summary for the
year 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011 is given in Table 3.1 for
comparative assessment of water quality trend between the years.

WATER QUALITY OF RIVERS IN INDUS BASIN
4.1

Indus River System

The Indus Basin is bounded on the east by the Great Himalayas, on the north by the Karakoram
and Haramosh ranges, on the west by the Sulaiman and Kirthar ranges and on the south by the
Arabian Sea. The basin in Indian Territory has a maximum east-west length of about 855 km
and maximum north south width of about 560 km.
The Indus rises near Manasarowar Lake in Tibet Plateau (China). The river has five tributaries
in India; they are the Jhelum, the Chenab, the Ravi, the Beas, and the Sutlaj. The Jhelum, the
Ravi and the Sutluj rivers each have a considerable length running along the international
boundary.
The basin area of Indus is covering the States of Jammu & Kashmir, Haryana, Himachal
Pradesh, Punjab, Chandigarh and Rajasthan., The important urban centres in these States are
Ambala, Shimla, Jalandhar, Moga, Pathankot, Ludhiana, Batala, Patiala, Hoshiarpur, Amritsar,
Bathinda, Abohar, Ganganagar, Chandigarh, Barnala, Faridkot, Fazilka, Firozpur, Firozpur
Cantt., Gurdaspur, Kapurthala, Khanna, KotKapura, Malerkotla, Malout, Mansa, Muktsar,
Phagwara, Rajpura, S.A.S.Nagar, (Mohali), Sangrur, Nabha, Panchkula Urban Estate,
Hanumangarh.
4.2

Water Quality Monitoring in Indus Basin

The State Pollution Control Boards of Himachal Pradesh, Punjab, Haryana and Rajasthan carry
out the water quality monitoring of tributaries of River Indus in the basin. The tributary streams
covered under the monitoring programme are Beas, Satluj, Sirsa, Swan, Largi, Parvati, Tawi,
Gawkadal, Chuntkol, Jhelum, Chenab, Baspa, Binwa, Neugal, Siuel, Spiti, Suketi Khad,
Basanter, Devak, Banganga, Ujh, Kali bein and Ravi. The ranges of water quality observed with
respect to Temperature, pH, DO, Conductivity, BOD, Nitrate+Nitrite, Total Coliform (TC) and
Faecal Coliform (FC) are presented as minimum, maximum and mean value to assess the extent
of water quality variation throughout the year.
4.2.1

Water Quality of River Beas

The Water quality of River Beas indicates that pH, conductivity, Faecal Coliform, Total coliform
and DO are meeting the water quality criteria at all locations. The BOD value ranges from 0.18.7 mg/l with highest value at D/s Kulu. The count of Faecal Coliforms ranges from 11 to 900
MPN/100ml whereas Total Coliforms ranges from 34-1600 MPN/100ml. The Water Quality of
River Beas is given in Annexure-I (Table 4.1). The water quality status of River Beas with
respect to BOD, DO, Total Coliform, Faecal Coliform and Conductivity is presented in Fig.4.1
& 4.2

4.2.2

Water Quality of River Satluj

The water quality of River Satluj is conforming to water quality criteria with respect to pH at
most of the locations whereas conductivity and DO is meeting with the criteria at all the
locations. The DO varies from 4.0 to 11.5 mg/l and the BOD ranges from Nil-27 mg/l. The
maximum value 27 mg/l of BOD is observed at D/s Budhanala Confluence at Ludhiana. The
other locations having high level of BOD are at 1 km D/s of Zenith (25 mg/l), D/s of East Bein
(4.9 mg/l), U/s of Head Works Ropar (4.2 mg/l). The Faecal coliform value ranges from 4 to
70,000 MPN/100ml whereas the Total Coliform value ranges from 27 to 1,00,000 MPN/100ml.
The Faecal Coliform and Total coliform count is not complying with the permissible limit of
water quality criteria for bathing at D/s Budha Nala Confl., Boat Bridge Dharmkotnakodar Road,
D/s of East Bein, 1 km D/s of Zenith, U/s Head works Ropar in Punjab. The concentration of
Nitrate (NO3-) is observed in the range of 0.06 -10 mg/l.The water quality of River Satluj with
respect to Temperature, DO, pH, Conductivity, BOD, Nitrate +Nitrite-N, Faecal Coliform and
Total Coliform is given in AnnexureI (Table 4.2). The water quality status of River Satluj with
respect to BOD, DO, Total Coliform, Faecal Coliform and Conductivity is presented in Fig. 4.3
& 4.4.

CHAPTER V
WATER QUALITY OF RIVERS IN GANGA BASIN
5.1

Ganga River System

The Ganga basin covers slightly more than one-fourth (26.3 per cent) of the countrys total
geographical area, and is the biggest river basin. In India the basin covers the whole of
Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar and the Union Territory of Delhi and parts of Punjab,
Haryana, Himachal Pradesh, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and West Bengal. The main river,
rising in the northern most part of Uttarakhand, flows through Uttar Pradesh, Bihar and West
Bengal and finally falls into the Bay of Bengal. The Ganga Basin is bound on the north by the
Himalayas and on the south by the Vindhyas. The ridge between the Indus system and the
Ganga system, the Great desert of Rajasthan and the Aravalli hills form the boundary on the
west. After traversing a length of 1450 km in Uttarakhand and Uttar Pradesh and 110 km in the
boundary between U.P. and Bihar the river then enters Bihar and flows 445 km more or less
through the middle of the State. The length of the river measured along the Bhagirathi and the
Hugli during its course in West Bengal is about 520 km.
The Ganga has a large number of tributaries. Some of these are of Himalayan origin having
considerably large water wealth. The important tributaries within India are the Kali, the
Ramganga, the Yamuna, the Gomti, the Ghaghara, the Gandak and the Kosi. The Yamuna
although a tributary of the Ganga, is virtually a river by itself. Its major tributaries are the
Chambal, the Sind, the Betwa and the Ken. The main plateau tributaries of the Ganga are the
Tons, the Son, the Damodar and the Kasai-Haldi.
5.2

Water Quality Monitoring in Ganga Basin

The water quality monitoring of the River Ganga and its several tributaries are being done in the
basin by the State Pollution Control Boards of Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, West Bengal,
Haryana, Himachal Pradesh, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Central Pollution Control Board at
242 locations. The ranges of water quality observed in rivers in Ganga Basin with respect to
Temperature, pH, DO, Conductivity, BOD, Nitrate +Nitrite, Total Coliform (TC) and Faecal
Coliform (FC) are presented as minimum, maximum and mean value to assess the extent of
water quality variation throughout the year.
5.2.1

Water Quality of River Ganga

The Water quality of River Ganga indicates that pH, conductivity and DO are meeting the water
quality criteria at majority of locations. pH ranges from 5.99.1. Dissolved Oxygen ranges from
0.6 to 14.1 mg/l. Conductivity ranges from 18-6220 mhos/cm. High value of conductivity is
observed at Diamond Harbour (6220 mhos/cm) due to intrusion of sea water in the estuary.
The BOD value ranges from 0.4-27 mg/l. BOD is exceeding the water quality criteria at majority
of the locations except at Gangotri, Upper Stretch of Rudraprayag, Devprayag & Rishikesh in

63

Uttarakhand; Shukra Tal in Uttar Pradesh and whole stretch in Bihar except Bhagalpur &
Ramrekhaghat.
The count of Faecal Coliform (FC) ranges from 21-3 x106 MPN/100ml whereas Total Coliform
(TC) ranges from 30-5 x106 MPN/100ml. The maximum Total Coliform (TC) and Faecal
Coliform (FC) level is not meeting the desired water quality criteria at most of the locations. The
highest value of Total Coliform and Faecal Coliform is observed at Dakshineshwar. The
concentration of Nitrate+Nitrite ranges from 0.0 -10 mg/l. The water quality of River Ganga with
respect to Temperature, pH, Conductivity, DO, BOD, Nitrite+ Nitrate, Total Coliforms (TC) and
Faecal Coliform (FC) is given in Annexure-I (Table 5.1). The state-wise water quality status of
mainstream of River Ganga with respect to BOD, DO, Total Coliform, Faecal Coliform and
Conductivity is given in Figure 5.1 to 5.6.

5.2.2

Water Quality of River Yamuna

The River Yamuna is a major tributary of River Ganges. In the upper course of 200 km stretch it
draws water from several major streams namely Rishi-Ganga, Unta and Hanuman Ganga, Tons,
Giri, and Ashan. The combined stream flows through the shivalik range of hills of Uttarakhand,
Himachal Pradesh, and Uttar Pradesh and enters into the plains in the Dak Phatthar in Haryana
where this river regulated through weir and diverted into canal for power generation. From
Tajewala barrage in Yamunanagar district of Haryana, river again diverted into Western Yamuna
Canal and Eastern Yamuna Canal for irrigation. River regain its water from ground water accrual
and feeding canal through Somnadi (seasonal stream) just U/s of Kalanaur and traverses a route
of about 1150 km through three states i.e. Haryana, Delhi and U.P. and finally to its confluence
with Ganges at Allahabad. It receives major tributaries like Chambal, Betwa, Sindh and Ken
from right bank and Hindon from left bank.
The availability of water in River Yamuna is greatly varied with time and space. Precipitation is
confined to only three months in a year and varies greatly. Most of the water flows in the
Yamuna (nearly 80%) in monsoon period (July, August and September) only. Whatever water
flows in non-monsoon period (October to June) is extensively used for irrigation and drinking
leaving very little or no water in the river to flow.
It is observed that about 500 km long stretch of the river is in bad shape, having water quality,
most of the time, below desired level for "designated best use". In the dry season four distinct
gradients of pollutional load can be discerned in the river stretch between Wazirabad and
Etawah. The stretch between Wazirabad and Okhla is the most heavily polluted one, carrying the
massive input of wastewater from Delhi. This input has sets off a progressive series of chemical
and biological events in the D/s water. This stretch is characterised by high bacterial population,
cloudy appearance high BOD and strong disagreeable odour - all indicating general depletion of
oxygen. Masses of gaseous sludge rising from the bottom are often noticed floating near the
surface of the water. During monsoon due to flood the sludge deposited in this stretch is flushed
and stay in suspension causes rise in oxygen uptake in the D/s. This causes heavy fish mortality
every year during first flushing after onset of monsoon.

75

Though there are number of bathing "Ghats along the river in Delhi stretch, the quality of water
is far below the bathing standards. Even in this short stretch, remarkable purification takes place
due to high temperature and long retention time in this stretch due to the two barrages one at
Okhla and another at ITO (nearly 10 km U/s of Okhla Barrage). The ITO Barrage is used divert
the Yamuna water for cooling purpose of the two Thermal Power Plants located near ITO. In the
stretch between Okhla and Agra the same assimilative capacity can be observed after the sewage
input at Okhla, Mathura and Agra. After a few kilometers the repeated additions of sewage are
mainly noticeable by a higher state of eutrophication leading to the formation of algal mats in the
River. Excessive algal can cause problems associated with the oxygen balance in the water
(daytime super saturation and nighttime oxygen depletion). The water quality from DO, BOD,
and bacterial point of view is not fit for designated best uses of this stretch. The Agra Water
Works is drawing its raw water from this only.
The stretch from Agra to the confluence with the River Chambal at Etawah is characterized by
self- purification processes of the Agra effluents. The confluence with relatively clean Chambal
River is of great value in diluting the pollution load of River Yamuna before it joins the Ganga at
Allahabad.
During the monsoon period due to huge mass of water flows in the river the barrages are opened
leading to a more or less continuous system. The high load of untreated biodegradable material
(domestic sewage) leads several gradients in saprobic and eutrophic conditions; major part of the
Yamuna can hardly fulfill the designated uses.
5.2.2.1 Major Water Quality Segments
The Yamuna is classified into 5 distinct segments due to characteristic Hydrological and
Ecological conditions. These segments are:
Himalayan Segment
Upper Segment
Delhi Segment
Eutrophicated Segment
Diluted Segment
5.2.2.2 Critical Segments

From origin to Tajewala Barrage (172 kms.)

Tajewala Barrage to Wazirabad Barrage (224 kms.)
Wazirabad Barrage to Okhla Barrage (22 kms.)
Okhla Barrage to Chambal Confluence (490 kms.)
Chambal Confluence to Ganga Confluence (468 kms.)

The water quality in the Himalayan Segment and the Diluted Segment is comparatively good.
However, due to heavy abstraction from and discharge of pollutants into the river system, there
are critical segments, which require pollution abatement measures to improve the water quality
of the river. These segments with the causes of pollution are:
Wazirabad to Okhla
Okhla to Vrindavan
Vrindavan to Mathura
Mathura to Etawah

Domestic and industrial waste water of Delhi.

Domestic wastewater from Delhi and industrial effluent from
Saharanpur, Muzaffarnagar, Ghaziabad, Noida, etc.
Domestic wastewater and industrial effluent from dyeing and printing
industry of Vrindavan and Mathura
Domestic wastewater from Agra and Etawah.

is complying with desired water quality criteria at all locations and ranges from 52-1110. The
DO varies from 0.0 to 11.4 mg/l. Supersaturation of DO indicates that the river is highly septic or
eutrophicated at a number of locations. The low values of DO are observed at Nizammuddin,at
Okhla bridge ,at Okhla after meeting of Shahdara drain,at Mazawali (0.0mg/l),at Mathura U/S

The BOD ranges from 0.8-113 mg/l in the entire length of river. The maximum value of 113
mg/l of BOD is observed at Okhla after meeting of Shahdara drain. The other locations observed
maximum BOD are at Okhla Bridge (inlet of Agra Canal (40mg/l) ,at Nizzamuddin (39 mg/l),at
Mazawali (24.0 mg/l),D/S of Agra and at Bateshwar (15mg/l) Vishramghat Mathura(14.6 mg/l),
at Etawah (14.0 mg/l),Kesighat Vrindavan (13.8 mg/l) and Shahpur (12.8 mg/l).
Faecal Coliform value ranges from 6-2 x 1010 MPN/100ml whereas the Total Coliform value
ranges from 12-2x1010 MPN/100ml. The Total and Faecal Coliforms count is considerably high
and does not meet the criteria at most of the monitoring locations. The highest value of Faecal
Coliform and Total Coliform is observed at Okhla after meeting Shahadara drain, Nizamuddin
and Okhla Bridge (Inlet of Agra Canal). The concentration of Nitrate+ Nitrite varies from 0-2.58
mg/l. The water quality of River Yamuna with respect to Temperature, pH, DO, Conductivity,
BOD, Nitrate +Nitrite, Total Coliform (TC) and Faecal Coliform (FC) is presented in AnnexureI Table 5.2. The water quality status of mainstream of River Yamuna with respect to BOD, DO,

CHAPTER VI
WATER QUALITY OF RIVERS IN BRAHMAPUTRA BASIN
6.1 Brahmaputra River System
The Brahmaputra basin extends over an area of nearly 5, 80,000 sq km and traverses a
distance of about 2900 km through Tibet (China), India and Bangladesh. In India, the
basin lies in the states of Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Nagaland, Meghalaya and West
Bengal. The river rises in the Great glacier in the northern-most chain of the Himalayas
in the Kailash range at an elevation of about 5,510 m. It enters India across the Sadiya
frontiers tract, west of Sadiya town into the Assam valley. Here it is joined by two
more tributaries viz. the Dibang or Sikang and the Lohit, from here onwards the river is
known as the Brahmaputra. The river then descends down into the Assam valley from
east to west for a distance of about 720 km with its channels meandering from side to
side and forming several islands, one of these islands, Majuli covers an area of 1,250
sq. Km. during its course the river receives many more tributaries both from the north
and the south while some of them are trans-Himalayan rivers with considerable
discharges.
The Brahmaputra has the highest discharge of all the rivers, in India, because of heavy
annual average rainfall in the catchment area. The river has eight significant tributaries
in India, three from the north are the Manas, the Kameng (or the Jia Bharali) and the
Subansiri and three from the east are the Dibang or Sikang, the lohit and the Buri
Dihing and two from the North West are the Tista and the Jaldhaka.
The basin area of Brahmaputra is covering the States of Arunachal Pradesh, Assam,
Nagaland, Meghalaya, Sikkim and West Bengal. The important urban centres in these
States are Shillong (Meghalaya), Guwahati, Jorhat, Dilbrugarh, Siliguri, Alipurduar,
Dhubri, Nagaon, Tezpur, Tinsukia (Assam), Dimapur (Nagaland), Kohima (Sikkim),
Darjeeling, Dabgram Jalpaiguri, Koch-Bihar (West Bengal).
6.1.1 Water Quality Monitoring in Brahmaputra Basin
The State Pollution Control Boards of Assam, Nagaland and Sikkim are doing the water
quality monitoring of the River Brahmaputra and its several tributaries in the basin. The

WATER QUALITY OF RIVERS IN MAHI BASIN
7.1

Mahi River System

The Mahi basin extends over an area of 34,842 sq. km. The interstate river Mahi is 583
km long, originating in Madhya Pradesh, passing through Rajasthan and Gujarat and
draining into the Gulf of Khambhat. The Mahi flows northwards initially entering into
Banswara district and then turning southward flowing through Udaipur and Dungarpur
districts before entering into Gujarat. In Gujarat, it flows through Panchmahal, Kheda,
Vadodara and Bharuch districts before draining into the Gulf. The principal tributaries
of the river are the Som from the right and the Anas and the Panam from the left. The
important urban centres in the watershed of Mahi are Godhra, Vadodara, Dohad and
Dadhoi in Gujarat; Ratlam, Jaora in Madhya Pradesh; and Banswara in Rajasthan.
Vadodara is a metropolitan city as well as a centre for industrial activity. In Vadodara
majority of industrial units are pharmaceutical and petrochemicals, besides units of
caustic soda; distillery, fertilizer, dyes and pesticides also exist. The wastewater
generated by IPCL, GSFC, Gujarat refinery, GIDC, Indian Dye stuff (P) Ltd. are being
discharged into the Gulf of Khambhat through the Vadodara effluent channel.
Although the large Vadodara industrial complex has extended considerably to the west
of the small Dhadhar creek and discharges large quantity of effluent into the tidal
segment of the river Mahi, the Dhadhar has its own independent catchment area
(outside Mahi Basin) inclusive of its tiny tributary Viswamitri which is extremely
polluted by the effluent generated from Vadodara.
7.2

Water Quality Monitoring in Mahi Basin

The State Pollution Control Boards of Gujarat and Rajasthan are doing the water
quality monitoring of the River Mahi and several tributaries in the basin. The ranges of
water quality observed in River Mahi, Panam and Anas with respect to Temperature,
DO, pH, Conductivity, BOD, Nitrate +Nitrite-N, Faecal Coliform and Total Coliform
are presented as minimum, maximum and mean value to assess the extent of water
quality variation throughout the year.

WATER QUALITY OF RIVERS IN SABARMATI BASIN
8.1

Sabarmati River System

The Sabarmati basin extends over an area of 21,674 sq km. Located in Western India,
the basin covers areas in the States of Rajasthan and Gujarat. It rises in the Aravalli
hills. The total length of the river from the head to its outfall into the sea is 371 km.
The principal tributaries of the river are the Sei, the Wankal, the Harnay, the Hathmati,
and the Vatrak and the Meshwa. The river Sabarmati and its tributaries are all rain-fed.
The rainfall being fairly low in the basin, its water wealth potential is one of the two
lowest in India. The lower part of the basin has become a haven for industries and
GIDC has encouraged a new gene of small and medium industries many of them being
engineering and chemical units generating significant water pollution. The textile
industry continues to dominate the industrial scene in Ahmedabad. In the recent times
about 100 km long 30 km wide Gandhinagar-Vadodara belt is a prosperous and fast
developing urban industrial area.
The basin area of Sabarmati is covering the States of Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and
Gujarat. The important urban centres in Gujarat are Gandhi Nagar, Junagadh,
Ahmadabad, Surendranagar, Gandhidham, Anand, Dholka, Himatnagar, Kalol, Unjha,
Viramgam and Visnagar.
8.2

Water Quality Monitoring in Sabarmati Basin

The water quality monitoring of the River Sabarmati and its tributaries are being done

WATER QUALITY OF RIVERS IN NARMADA BASIN
9.1

Narmada River System

The Narmada basin extends over an area of 98,796 sq km. Lying in the northern
extremity of the Deccan plateau, the basin covers large areas in the Madhya Pradesh
and Gujarat and a comparatively smaller area in Maharashtra. The Narmada Basin is
bounded on the north by the Vindhya, on the east by the Maikala range, on the south by
the Satpura and on the west by the Arabian Sea.
Narmada is the largest west-flowing river of the Indian peninsula. Narmada rises from
Amarkantak, in the Shahdol district of Madhya Pradesh. The total length of the river
from the head to its outfall into the Gulf of Khambhat is 1,312 km. Although entirely
rain fed, the Narmada has a fairly heavy discharge because of moderately heavy annual
average rainfall in the basin, particularly in the upper catchment area.
Urbanisation unlike in other basins has been going on in a slow pace in this basin
mainly due to the river passing through hilly terrain that has made it inaccessible in
most places. The major urbanisation centres are Jabalpur, Dewas and Khandwa besides
Bharuch in Gujarat State.
The industrial development in the Narmada basin is lower as compared to other river
basins. The industrialized districts of the Narmada basin are Dhar, Jabalpur and
Bharuch consisting of clusters of pharmaceuticals, pesticides, dyes & distilleries,
leather & fertilizer units whereas in Jabalpur, Khandwa and Hoshangabad the main
industrial activity are the paper mills. In most of the other districts the industries are
almost non-existent.
The basin area of Narmada is covering the States of Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat and
Maharashtra. The important urban centres in these States are Bharuch and Ankleshwar
in Gujarat; Murwara (Katni), Jabalpur, Khandwa, Betul, Hoshangabad, Itarsi and
Khargone in Madhya Pradesh.
9.2

Water Quality Monitoring in Narmada Basin

The State Pollution Control Boards of Madhya Pradesh and Gujarat are doing the water
quality monitoring of the River Narmada at 26 locations and its tributary streams Chota

10.1

Tapi River System

The Tapi basin extends over an area of 65,145 sq km. Situated in the Deccan plateau,
the basin covers large areas in the States of Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra and Gujarat.
The Tapi basin is bounded on the north by the Satpura range, on the east by the
Mahadeo hills, on the south by the Ajanta range and Satmala hills and on the west by
the Arabian Sea. The total length of the river from the head to its outfall into the sea is
724 km of which 228 km is in Madhya Pradesh. 228 km in Maharashtra, 214 km in
Gujarat and the remaining 54 km from the common boundary between Madhya Pradesh
and Maharashtra.
The Tapi receives several tributaries on both its banks. The Bhokar, the Suki, the Mor,
the Harki, the Guli, the Aner, the Arunavati, the Gomai, the Gomati and the Valer join
it from the right and the Puma, the Bhogvati, the Vaghur, the Girna, the Bori, the
Panjhra, the Amarvati, the Shiva, the Rengavati and the Nesu join from the left. The
river basin is moderately rain fed and flows through intensively farmed black cottonsoil area.
The urban population has been observed to be higher in the tail reaches of the river
compared to the Upper reaches of the basin, although the proportion of the geographical
areas covered to these two reaches are in reverse order. The most populous town in
Tapi basin is Surat followed by Amravati and Dhule in Maharashtra.
Major part of the upper Tapi basin is predominantly agricultural but in the lower basin
area industrialisation has fairly developed in M.P. The industries are centred only in
one district-East Nimar (Khandwa) while in Maharashtra Jalgaon is the most
industrialised area.Distillery units contribute the largest share in Maharashtra where as
textile occupies the predominant activity in Gujarat followed by food & beverages and
chemical industries.

CHAPTER XI
WATER QUALITY OF RIVERS IN MAHANADI BASIN
11.1 Mahanadi River System
The Mahanadi basin extends over an area of 141 thousands sq km. lying in the north east of the
Deccan plateau, the basin covers large areas in the States of Chattisgarh and Orissa, and only
small areas in Bihar and Maharashtra. The upper basin is a saucer-shaped depression known as
the Chhatisgarh. The Mahanadi rises in a pool, 6 km from Pharsiya village near Nagri town in
Raipur district of Chattisgarh, and falls into the Bay of Bengal, near False point about 16 km
below the confluence of the Chitarala and the Mahanadi.The total length of the river from the
head to its outfall into the sea is 851 km of which 357 km are in Chattisgarh and the balance of
494 km are in Orissa. The Seonath, the Jonk, the Hasdeo, the Mand, the Ib, the Ong and the Tel
are the principal tributaries of the Mahanadi river.
The water quality study reveals that the water of Mahanadi is comparatively less polluted
compared to the other similar rivers in the country. However, certain stretches like the D/s
portion of river Ib at Brajrajnagar, D/s of Sambalpur and Cuttack have comparatively higher
degree of pollution. The pollution of Ib river is easily attributable to the discharges from a large
paper industry situated in Brajrajnagar. In the majority of the other locations the BOD and the
total coliform are the two parameters that are mainly responsible for lowering the water quality.
While at places like Tikarapara this could be due to run-off from the areas adjoining the
riverbanks that are generally used by the village people for defection. At the urban centres, the
high BOD and coliform levels are obviously due to the discharges into the river from domestic
sources either directly or indirectly. None of the towns small or large, on the banks of Mahanadi
have any regular sewerage system or sewage treatment plants and the domestic wastes find their
way mostly through small nullah or storm water drains which join the D/s of the Ib river at
Brajrajnagar causing serious depletion of oxygen level along the whole stretch which cause
serious threat to the aquatic lives.
Korba has been identified as a critically polluted area in this river basin. The industrial as well
as domestic wastewaters are being discharged into the River Hasdeo directly as well as through
river Ahiran and Dengur Nala. The major source of pollution in the river is due to Thermal
Power Plants, Bharat Aluminium Company, Captive power plant of BALCO, IBP (explosive
unit) and coal mining operations. The action plan formulated suggests that the capacity of ash
ponds of thermal ponds of BALCO have to be augmented.
The river has often been referred to as the Sorrow of Orissa. The inhabited inner basin
Chattisgarh plain suffered frequent droughts whereas the fertile deltaic area has been wrecked by
repeated floods.
The basin area of the Mahanadi has a large number of industrial complexes in the Orissa portion
of the basin the major industries are paper. textiles and thermal power plants at Choudwar,
fertiliser and breweries at Paradeep, Sugar industries of Nayagarh, Badamba, Cement industry at

101

Bargarh, paper industry of Brajrajnagar, coal mining areas of Rampur and lb valley, and an
aluminium smelter at Hirakud.
Most of these industries are located on the banks of the river Mahanadi or its tributaries and
distributaries, which are used to carry the industrial effluents and wastewater from these
industries. From the point of view of significant environmental impacts, the important medium
scale industries are the chemical, textile, paper, cement, and leather tanning which consume large
quantities of water.
Iron and steel industry at Bhilai, cement industries at Durg and Raipur, textile industry of
Rajnandagaon, aluminium and thermal power plants at Korba are the major polluting industries
in the State of M.P that falls in the river basin. All these major units are located on the
riverbanks of Seonath, Kharoon and Hasdeo. The medium scale industries include chemical and
distilleries of Durg, cement industries of Raipur, Iron and steel of Urla, paper industries of
Bilaspur and many other agro based industries.
All the industries are discharging their wastewater either directly or indirectly to river Mahanadi
as well as its tributaries. The vast mineral and human resources of the basin besides power
generation infrastructure has resulted in a growth of a large variety of industries. The industries
using the river bodies as the ultimate sink need to establish effluent treatment plants so that the
designated best use of the river is sustained.
The basin area of Mahanadi is covering the States of Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh, Orissa and
Jharkhand. The important urban centres in these States are Rajnandgaon, Korba, Bilaspur, Durg,
Raipur, Dhamtari, Raigarh, Rajharajharandalli in Madhya Pradesh & Chhattisgarh. And Cuttack,
Puri, Sambalpur, Jatani, Balangir, Bargarh, Bhawanipatna, Brajarajnagar and Jharsuguda in
Orissa.

CHAPTER XII
WATER QUALITY OF RIVERS IN BRAHMANI & BAITARNI BASIN
12.1

Brahmani and Baitarni River System

The Brahmani-Baitarani basin extends over an area of 51,822 sq km. Lying in the northeast of
the Deccan Plateau, the basin covers large areas in the States of Orissa and Jharkhand and a
small area in Chattisgarh. The Chhotanagpur Plateau on the west and south bound the basin on
the north by the ridge separating it from the Mahanadi basin, and on the east by the Bay of
Bengal. The Brahmani sub-basin covers an area of 39,033 sq km while the Baitarani sub-basin
covers an area of 12,789 sq km. The Brahmani known as the South Koel, in the upper reaches,
rises near Nagri village in the Ranchi district of Jharkhand State. The total length of the river
from the head to its outfall into the Bay of Bengal is 799 km of which 258 km is in Jharkhand
and 541 km is in Orissa. The Baitarni river rises in the hill ranges of Keonjhar district of Orissa
at an elevation of about 900 meters and has a length of about 355 km. Both the rivers outfall in
the Bay of Bengal, forming a common delta. The important tributaries of Brahmani are, the
Karo, the Sankh and the Tirka and those of Baitarni are the Salandi and the Matai.
The industrial complex of Angul Talcher has been identified as a critically polluted area in the
Brahmani basin. The wasteweaters generated form the industries Viz, NALCO, TTPS etc. and
mining operations are primarily responsible for deterioration of water quality of Nandira River
which is a tributary stream of Brahmani river. Detailed survey of this stretch has been carried out
and the action plans have been formulated to improve the water quality of this stretch.
The basin area of Brahmani and Baitarni is covering the States of Jharkhand, and Orissa.The
important urban centres in these States are Rourkela in Orissa and Gumia in Jharkhand.

CHAPTER XIII
WATER QUALITY OF RIVERS IN SUBARNAREKHA BASIN
13.1

Subarnarekha River System

The Subarnarekha rises near Nagri village in the Ranchi district. Of its total length 269 km are in
Jharkhand and 64 km in West Bengal and 62 in Orissa. The river drains a total area of 19,296 sq
km. The Subarnarekha is the smallest of the basins and is falling short only marginally to be
called a major basin. It has virtually no significant tributary; the tiny Kharkai has gained a
name only because of its support to the Jamshedpur steel city. The river Subarnarekha passes
through an important industrial belt of Jharkhand.
The river is basically a rainfed peninsular river with the wet months being June to
September.The river in its upper and middle reaches remains more or less as a stagnant pool,
often highly charged with pollutants, particularly during dry periods. The largest concentration
of population is located in the Singbhum and Ranchi districts of Jharkhand. The river and its
tributaries are the main sources of urban water supply with the ground water resources still under
utilized. Nearly 60 percent of the water supplies eventually find their way to surface water
systems. Some of the important towns are also significant industrial centres. None of the towns
except partly for Jamshedpur and Tatanagar railway colony have wastewater treatment facility
worth mentioning.
The Subarnarekha being a mineral rich area, it is natural that mining activity would always be an
important element in the pollution control programme.The possibility of contamination of
surface and ground water derived from the ore dumps and radioactive waste materials in the
uranium mines at Jaduguda is very great.
The basin area of Subarnerekha is covering the States of Jharkhand and Orissa. The important
urban centres in these states are Jamshedpur, Chaibasa and Ranchi in Jharkhand; and Bhadrak in
Orissa.
13.2

Water Quality Monitoring in Subarnarekha Basin

The water quality monitoring of the River Subarnarekha and its tributary is being done in the
basin by the State Pollution Control Boards of Jharkhand, Orissa and West Bengal at 12
locations. The ranges of water quality observed in River Subarnarekha with respect to
Temperature, pH, DO, Conductivity, BOD, Nitrate +Nitrite, Total Coliform (TC) and Faecal
Coliform (FC) are presented as minimum, maximum and mean value to assess the extent of
water quality variation throughout the year.
13.3

Water Quality Status of River Subarnarekha

The water quality of Subarnarekha with respect to DO and Conductivity is meeting the desired
water quality criteria at all the locations except DO at Gatalsud Dam (0.8 mg/l) in Jharkhand.
BOD is observed in the range of 0.3-8.0 mg/l.The higher value of BOD is observed at Namkum
Road Bridge (8.0 mg/l) D/S Jamshedpur (Tata Nagar) (3.2 mg/l) in Jharkhand. The Fecal
113

coliform and Total coliform count is meeting the desired criteria at all the locations except
Rajghat near Bihar Border (54000 & 92000 MPN/100ml respectively) in Orissa.
The water quality of the River Subarnarekha with respect to Temperature, pH, DO, Conductivity,
BOD, Nitrate +Nitrite, Total Coliform (TC) and Faecal Coliform (FC) is given in Annexure-I
Table 13.1. The water quality status of River Subarnarekha with respect to BOD, DO, Total

CHAPTER XIV
WATER QUALITY OF RIVERS IN GODAVARI BASIN
14.1

Godavari River System

The Godavari basin extends over an area of 3, 12,812 sq km which is nearly 10 percent of the
total geographical area of the country. The basin lies in the Deccan plateau, and covers large
areas in the States of Andhra Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh and Maharashtra, in
addition to smaller areas in Karnataka and Orissa.
The Satmala Hills, the Ajanta Range and the Mahadeo Hills, on the south and east by the Eastern
Ghats and on the west by the Western Ghats, bound the Godavari basin on the north. The
Godavari is the largest river of the Peninsular India, inspite of its massive catchment area; the
discharge is not very impressive because of moderate annual average rainfall in the basin. Its
four important tributaries are the Manjira, the Pranhita, the Indravati and the Sabari. The
wastewater generation from domestic (both rural and urban) and the industrial sector are the
main sources of pollution in the river basin. Amongst the five states Orissa State is least
industrialized followed by Chhattisgarh and Karnataka, with Maharashtra having the high urban
industrial pockets. Most of the industrial activities are centred mainly at Aurangabad & Nasik in
Maharashtra, East & West Godavari District in Andhra Pradesh. Sugar and distillery units are
large in number in Maharashtra followed by pharmaceuticals, leather, pulp and paper and
pesticide units. In Andhra Pradesh sugar and distillery units are large in number followed by
Pulp & Paper and fertilizer industries. The above-mentioned industries are massive water
consuming by nature and the deterioration in water quality in the river cannot be ruled out
particularly from Nashik to Nanded in Maharashtra and at Baster in Chhattisgarh and
Burgampahad in Andhra Pradesh.
The important urban centers in this basin are Nagpur, Ambejogai, Ballarpur, Bhandara,
Buldhana, Chalisgaon, Hinganghat, Hingoli, Manmad Nandurbar Osmandabad Parli Pusad
Shrirampur Udgir Latur Kamptee Ahmadnagar Parbhani Aurangabad Wardha Bid Nashik

The River Godavari at most of locations in Maharashtra and Bhadrachalam U/s, near Rly Bdg
B/c of Rallavagu at Mancherial, Rajahmundry D/s, Godavarikhani, Ramagundam U/s & D/s and
Burgampahad in A.P. is exceeding desired water quality criteria. The sources of pollution is from
domestic and industrial wastewater generated from the large cities in Maharashtra and
Mancherial, Ramagundam, Rajahmundry, Godavarikhani, Burgampahad and Bhadrachalam
cities in Andhra Pradesh. Depletion of dissolved oxygen has been reported due to addition of
sewage into the river besides bacteriological pollution. To maintain the desired water quality
uses of the River Godavari in these stretches, the municipalities need to treat their wastewater
and the industries to install effluent treatment plants (ETP) before discharging into the rivers for
sustaining the desired level of water quality. Water quality of River Godavari is presented in
Annexure-I Table 14.1. The water quality status of River Godavari with respect to BOD, DO,
Total Coliform, Faecal Coliform and Conductivity is presented in Figure 14.1 to 14.4.

CHAPTER XV
WATER QUALITY OF RIVERS IN KRISHNA BASIN
15.1

Krishna River System

The Krishna basin extends over an area of 2, 58,948 sq km which is nearly 8% of the total
geographical area of the country. Lying in the Deccan plateau, it covers large areas in the States
of Maharashtra, Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh. All the major tributaries draining the base of the
triangle fall into the river in the upper two-thirds of its length. The Krishna rises in the Western
Ghats at an altitude of 1,337 meter just north of Mahabaleshwar, about 64 km from the Arabian
Sea and flows from west to east through the States of Maharashtra, Karnataka and Andhra
Pradesh to join the Bay of Bengal. The total length of the river from the source to its outfall into
the sea is about 1,400 km. Together with its tributaries, the river drains about 708 km of the
Western Ghats which is its chief source of supply. The Krishna is the third longest river within
India, yet it has a rather poor water wealth because of fairly low rainfall in the basin. The river
has two large tributaries - the Bhima and the Tungabhadra and four smaller tributaries - the
Ghataprabha, the Malprabha the Musi and the Muneru. The river basin survey report
communicates that the most populous cities in the basin are Hyderabad Agglomeration in A.P.
Pune agglomeration in Maharashtra and Bhadravati complex in Karnataka. Bhadravati in
Karnataka and Patancheru- Bolaram in Andhra Pradesh are the critically polluted areas identified
in the basin area of Krishna. For Bhadravati the major source of water pollution is the
wastewater generated from industries besides the untreated sewage of the town, which is being
discharged into Bhadra. It is suggested that sewage treatment plant may be provided for the
sewage of the town and ETPs of the existing industries need modifications to comply with
prescribed standards for restoration of water quality of the Bhadra River. In the Patancheru Bolaram area in Andhra Pradesh the effluent generated by industries is the main sources of water
pollution in the rivers Manpera and Nakkvagu. Industries are polluting ground water in the
region.
The basin area of Krishna is covering the States of Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, and Karnataka.
The important urban centres in Andhra Pradesh are Guntakal, Guntur, Hyderabad, Kurnool,
Gudivada, Tenali, Machilipatnam, Vijayawada, Adoni, Mahaboob-Nagar, Bapatla,
Chilakaluripet, Gudur, Kavali, Miryalguda, Nalgonda, Suryapet, Yemmiganur, Chikmagalur,
Gangawati, Gokak, Harihar, Nipani, Rabkavi-Banhatti, Ranibennur, Shahabad; in Karnataka are
Gadag-betagiri, Raichur, Hubli-Dharwad, Shimoga, Bijapur, Bellary, Gulbarga, Bhadravati,
Hosepet, Davangere, Belgaum, Chitradurga, Bagalkot; and in Maharashtra are Karad,
Pandharpur, Panvel, Satara, Kolhapur, Solapur, Pune, Ichalkaranji, Sangli and Barshi.
15.2

CHAPTER XVI
WATER QUALITY OF RIVERS IN PENNERU BASIN
16.1

Penneru River System

The Penneru basin extends over an area of 55,213 sq km. Located in Peninsular India, it covers
areas in the States of Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh. The total length of the river from the head
to its outfall into the sea is 597 km of which about 61 km are in Karnataka and the balance of
536 km is in Andhra Pradesh.
The principal tributaries of the river are the Jayamangali, the Kunderu & the Sagilery from left
and the Chitravati, the Papagni & the Cheyyeru from right.
The Penneru River has the lowest average flow, due to low annual average rainfall. The meagre
water wealth of the basin has been utilized only for limited irrigational use, and additional
support had to be obtained from the adjoining River Krishna through the Kurnool-Cuddapah
(K.C.) and Tungabhadra canals. The Penneru and its tributaries do not have enough flow to
support direct abstraction for larger towns so; infiltration-wells are used for most of the riverside
towns. Only Nandyal town abstracts from the K.C. canal.
Major industries situated on the banks of the Penneru River are Paper Mills, Straw Board and
Sugar industry. The pollution abatement measures like sewage treatment plants for treating
municipal wastewater and effluent treatment plants for industries should be established so that
indiscriminate discharge of raw effluent directly into the river body shall not interfere with the
designated best uses of the river Penneru.
The basin area of Penneru is covering the States of Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh. The
important urban centres in Andhra Pradesh are Proddatur, Hindupur, Anantapur, Cuddapah,
Nellore, Nandyal, Dharmavarm, Kadiri, Madanapalle, Rayachoti and Tadipatri.
16.2

Water Quality Monitoring in Penneru Basin

The water quality monitoring of the River Penneru are being done in the basin by the State
Pollution Control Board of Andhra Pradesh at 5 locations. The monitoring locations are on
mainstream of River Penneru (5). The ranges of water quality observed in Penneru Basin with
respect to Temperature, pH, DO, Conductivity, BOD, Nitrate, Nitrite, Total Coliform (TC) and
Faecal Coliform (FC) are presented as minimum, maximum and mean value to assess the extent
of water quality variation throughout the year.
16.2.1 Water Quality of River Penneru
The water quality observed at four locations on Penneru River indicates that pH, DO, BOD,
Conductivity, Fecal Coliform and Total Coliform are meeting the desired water quality criteria at
all locations. The water quality status of the River Penneru is given in Annexure-I Table 16.1.

CHAPTER XVII
WATER QUALITY OF RIVERS IN CAUVERY BASIN
17.1

Cauvery River System

The Cauvery Basin extends over an area of 87,900 sq km in the States of Kerala, Karnataka and
Tamil Nadu. The total length of the river from the head to its outfall into the sea is 800 km of
which about 320 km are in Karnataka 416 km in Tamil Nadu and the remaining length of 64 km
forms the common boundary between the States of Karnataka and Tamil Nadu.
The important tributaries, which join the Cauvery within the Karnataka State, are the Harangi,
the Hemavati, the Shimsha and the Arkavati on the north (left bank) and the Lakshmantirtha, the
Kabani or Kapila and the Suvarnavati on the south (right bank). In the south (right bank), they
are the Bhavani, the Noyil and the Amaravati. The delta of Kaveri is so matured that the main
river Kaveri has virtually lost its link with the sea, while Coleroon, the main distributaries, bears
the brunt of the burden of flow. Like other rivers of South India, the Kaveri too has a rather
limited water wealth because of moderate to low rainfall in the basin.
The basin area of Cauvery is covering the States of Karnataka and Tamil Nadu, The important
urban centres in these states are Tumkur, Mandya, Mangalore, Mysore, Hassan, Bangalore,
Channapatna, Dod, Ballapur, Ramanagaram, in Karnataka; Karaikal in Pondicherry; Valparai,
Tamilnadu, Pollachi, Coimbatore, Erode, Thanjavur, Karur, Tiruchirappalli, Salem,
Kumbakonam, Bhavani, Chidambaram, Coonoor, Devershola, Mannargudi, Mayiladuthurai,
Mettuppalaiyam Nagappattinam, Pattukkottai, Pudukkottai, Tiruchengodu, Udhagamandalam,
Udumalaippettai, Villupum in Tamil Nadu. Industrial activity is also high in this basin,
particularly in the Bangalore area (Karnataka) and the towns Mettur and Coimbatore in the Tamil
Nadu State, followed by the districts of Mysore and Mandya in Karnataka and Periyar and Salem
in Tamil Nadu.

CHAPTER XX
ASSESSMENT OF GROUNDWATER QUALITY
20.1

Ground Water Quality Monitoring

The groundwater occurrence and availability is largely governed by the state of cementation and
compaction of the formation, which control the pore volume. The geological formations
encountered in the country may be broadly divided into three categories-the unconsolidated, the
semi-consolidated and the consolidated. In India a sizable proportion of population is dependent
upon ground water for drinking and other household utilities besides its use in irrigation at large.
Due to limited cost effective treatment options for polluted ground water, the affected resource is
generally lost for drinking and other utilities.
20.2

State wise Groundwater Quality Monitoring

To assess the problem of groundwater quality deterioration, network of groundwater quality

monitoring is extended to 807 locations. The State-wise number of groundwater monitoring
locations is given below.
