A study of Dham river water of district Wardha (M.S.) has been carried out to examine its suitability for aquatic life as well as domestic purposes. The samples from three stations viz., Pavnar Ashram (S1) , Ghorad (S2) & Morchapur (S3) were collected. The data was analysed with reference to ISI & WHO standards. It is found that the water is safe for domestic purposes & aquatic life from the point of view of levels of pH, density, surface tension, viscosity, conductance, TDS, alkalinity, DO & chloride concentration. However, the water quality parameters such as total hardness & Ca++ hardness at some stations were beyond the permissible limit. So it is suggested to remove total hardness & Ca++ hardness to make it fit for consumption.
