Water quality and chronic diseases are much related. The quality of drinking water has potential impact on the health of humans, and for social and economic development of country. Therefore physical and chemical assessment of water quality is very much important. Heavy metal concentration in sources of water would be detected. Statistical calculations would be important parameter for quality evaluation. With an objective to understand ground water pollution in this region, groundwater samples from different locations all over North Gujarat were analyzed for various physico-chemical parameters, viz., pH, conductivity, alkalinity, TDS, total hardness, nitrite, calcium, chloride, magnesium, sulphate and fluoride etc. moreover, heavy metal testing of water samples also performed. Samples were collected from different depth zones tapping shallow dug wells and tube wells from all the four districts viz., Patan, Mehsana, Sabarkantha and Banaskantha of North Gujarat during the period of one year. The results of physico-chemical analysis of groundwater are discussed.
