Human beings require potable water for drinking to keep them healthy. Clean, safe and adequate fresh water is vital to the survival of all living organisms. Drinking water affects the health of human beings due to the presence of various dissolved chemical constituents. Problems arising out of chemical constituents in drinking water are different from the problems of microbial contamination. Therefore, consumers should have at least minimum knowledge on quality of drinking water. People across the world depend on ground water for drinking. Ground water is a major source, so based on the importance of the matter; a research topic is taken up on the assessment of quality of groundwater in the selected areas of villages in Veeraghattam and Palakonda Mandals of Srikakulam District, Andhra Pradesh. This preliminary study assessed the quality of physical and chemical characteristic properties of underground water in the selected locations of 40 villages in Veeraghattam and 39 villages in Palakonda Mandals of Srikakulam District. Some physico chemical characteristic parameters are estimated in the samples and the results obtained are compared with the available standard values such as WHO and BIS.

The results of studies of physicochemical composition of drinking water and the magnitude of its Zeta potential establishing the degree of dependency of these indicators. Samples were taken in winter and summer. It is shown that variation of values for such parameters as alkalinity, hardness, contents of Ca2+ and Mg2+ slightly on the individual areas of sampling. It is established that values of indic ators of quality of drinking water from underground water intakes was more stable than from a surface source. In artesian water values the Zeta potential (ζ-potential) was 3-7 times lower than in the Volga. The alkalinity of the water year was slightly above winter. There were relations between the value of the Zeta potential and alkalinity of the water as well as turbidity and hardness. In most cases, the magnitude of the accuracy of the approximation was greater than 0.9.

The Potability of groundwater in selected location sites in the villages of Veeraghattam (VGT) Mandal of Srikakulam district, Andhra Pradesh has been investigated and obtained Water Quality Index (WQI) results are presented in this paper. Several Physico-chemical parameters like pH, Electrical Conductivity (EC), turbidity, Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), Total Hardness, calcium, magnesium, fluoride, chloride, dissolved oxygen, total alkalinity, and nitrite were experimentally determined from the samples and also to compute WQI. The results of WQI computation infer that the quality of groundwater in selected site locations in rural communities in Veeraghattam Mandal is rated as “good” for human consumption. Correlation between various parameters has also been computed, and the results are presented.
