Well water quality investigation has been carried out in Four zones of Nagpur City (Maharashtra), India, during December-2017 to March-2018 (Winter and Summer) where due to urbanisation and population growth , the municipal corporation water supply is not sufficient and people use water from wells for drinking and other purposes. In view of this fact various physicochemical parameters such as pH, electrical conductivity, total hardness as well as mercury, chromium and arsenic were analysed. A systematic calculation of correlation coefficient among different physicochemical parameters was performed. Comparison of these parameters of the water samples with WHO and Indian Standards showed that well water of some areas is bit contaminated and not safe for human consumption. Whereas there is no evidence of heavy metal contamination has been found.
