Abstract

The present work is aimed at assessing the water quality index for the Narmada river of Bharuch city.The
water quality index of Narmada River water was carried out for monsoon season 2016. At Bharuch 81 km stretch were
studied by locating six sampling stations at downstream of Bharuch city. The water samples collected were analyzed for
parameters such as pH, DO, Turbidity, BOD,COD,TDS and Temperature were measured as per standard methods.WQI
has been calculated using Delphi technique for waitage of parameter and also by measuring quality of parameters. The
results reveals that the Narmada river water quality index is 67.05 means the river quality is good river water needs some
degree of treatment before consumption as source of drinking water
