Without water life is not sustainable on earth. Primarily the ground water was safe to drink but after the time was passed it became polluted due to huge discharge of untreated industrial effluent and other human activities. Polluted water is mostly responsible for diseases like hepatitis, jaundice, typhoid dysentery and diarrhoea etc. Surface water and Groundwater both are the source of drinking water in the Lucknow city, the capital of Uttar Pradesh. The aim of this study is to know the current situation of ground water quality of Lucknow city. In this study 5 stations at Lucknow city have been selected for collecting ground water samples and comprehensive physico-chemical analysis was conducted. Physico-chemical Parameters like temperature, turbidity, conductivity, TDS, chloride, fluoride, total hardness, alkalinity, nitrate and phosphate were measured according to the standard method. The results were compared with IS drinking water standard 10500 and observed that most of parameters at all sampling station were found within acceptable limit while few parameter like TDS, total hardness, alkalinity and sulphate were found higher than standard limit at some of the stations.
