A systematic analysis has been carried out to explore physico-chemical parameters of ground water from well and bore hole in four different stations (sites) Pozhikarai, Periyakadu, Muttom, and Manavalakurichi in Kanyakumari District of South India. Well and bore hole water samples were collected from four stations in different seasons & in two years and analyzed for temperature, pH, turbidity, alkalinity, hardness, salinity, fluoride, chloride, total dissolved solids, dissolved oxygen, BOD, electrical conductivity, total nitrogen, nitrate, sulphate, ammonia, phosphate, total phosphorus, sodium, potassium and oxidation & reduction potential. Comparative studies of parameters in different stations and in different seasons in different years were also carried out. The physico-chemical parameters were analyzed and the results were compared with water quality standards described by WHO. The above study is useful to know the water quality and their fitness for drinking purposes at various stations undertaken.
