Water is important for survival of life on the planet Earth. The present developmental activities and increasing population have put stress on availability of water particularly on groundwater. In agriculture dominant areas groundwater is excessively used which caused declining of groundwater and also its quality deterioration. The present study area Babain block is located in Kurukshetra district of Haryana between the latitudes 30.02 N to 30.17 N and longitudes 76.92 E to 77.09 E and covers an area of 150.48 sq. 0 0 0 0 km. The main objective of the study was to assess groundwater quality for drinking purpose in the study area. In the study area eight groundwater samples were collected in 250 ml double capped plastic bottles. Geo-coordinates of sample locations were noted with the help of mobile GPS. Chemical analysis of eight groundwater samples were done using Tamilnadu Water Supply and Drainage (TWAD) Board, Chennai prepared Field Water Testing kit for twelve chemical parameters viz. pH, alkalinity, hardness, chloride, total dissolved solids (TDS), fluoride, iron, nitrite, nitrate, ammonia, phosphate and residual chlorine. Results of groundwater samples analysis were compared with BIS (IS10500:2012) drinking water standards to know the suitability of groundwater for drinking purpose. The study shows that pH ranges 7 to 8, alkalinity 210 mg/l to 350 mg/l, hardness 130 mg/l to 350 mg/l, chloride 30 mg/l to 50 mg/l, TDS 456 mg/l to 900 mg/l, fluoride nil to 1 mg/l, iron nil to 2 mg/l, ammonia nil to 0.5 mg/l, nitrite 0.2 mg/l to 0.5 mg/l, nitrate 45 mg/l to 75 mg/l, phosphate and residual chlorine nil in all the eight groundwater samples. The study is highly useful for planning and monitoring of groundwater quality for drinking purpose in the study area.
