Surface water samples from River Varuna flowing along Varanasi one of the oldest and most religious city of India were collected during January 2013 to December 2013. The collected samples were analyzed for various physico-chemical and microbiological parameters, with objective of assessing the changes occurring in various parameters during different seasons. The result obtained revealed that important indicator of pollution such as Biological oxygen demand (BOD) and Chemical oxygen demand (COD) were found to be lowest during monsoon period. Thus bringing out important role of natural flow in maintenance of homeostasis and reducing pollution in aquatic systems.
