Abstract-
To mankind rivers have been considered sacred from ancient times. At religious centers the water quality restoration of any river, especially of the Yamuna at Agra region, is a very complex and difficult task. In the present study water quality was assessed along the four different sampling locations of the river Yamuna for a period of six months (May 2014 to October 2014). Specific water quality parameters like EC, TDS, turbidity, chloride, and chemical oxygen demand in river Yamuna were analyzed. Correlation matrix analysis shows strong relationship between all the analysed water quality parameters. Higher values of physico-chemical parameters indicate that river water is not safe for drinking and domestic uses as prescribed by BIS.
