The study was conducted to evaluate the ground water quality of Kallur, Tirunelveli district, India. Groundwater samples were collected from five locations S1, S2 S3, S4, S5 and these samples were analyzed for more than 15 water quality parameters. High coefficient of variance indicates variability of physico-chemical parameters in ground water. From correlation analysis it was observed that very strong correlations exist between total hardness of samples S2, S3, S4, S5 and TDS of S1 exceeds the permissible limit. Potassium concentration (26 mg/l), chloride concentration (610 mg/l), and ammonia concentration (0.8 mg/l) are very higher than standard values. Biological parameters such as COD and BOD also analysed.
