Industrial waste if discharged into River water can give rise to significant deterioration in its quality. This paper presents River water quality of korba area. Nine different locations were selected for the study and compared. The parameters studied were pH, total alkalinity, total hardness, turbidity, chloride, sulphate, fluoride, total dissolved solids and conduc tivity. From overall analysis, it was observed that there was a slight fluctuation in the physico-chemical parameters among the water samples studied. Comparison of the physico-chemical parameters of the water sample with WHO and ICMR limits showed that the river water is highly contaminated and account for health hazards for human use.
