Water quality monitoring is a matter of utmost importance
to maintain the quality of potable sources in
rapidly growing areas. Recognizing the factors that have
an impact on the quality of water source is vital. To assess
the impact of population growth on groundwater quality
for drinking, a study was undertaken in a capital city of
eastern India. Based on density of residents, the study
area was grouped into five clusters; covering all clusters a
sum of fifty-eight samples from drinking water sources
was collected and characterized by relevant water quality
parameters. The nonparametric Kruskal – Wallis χ2 was
significant for all the parameters and a transition of NO3
and K from densely to sparsely inhabited area had become
evident from multi-comparison test and subsequently denoted
the effect of population density on drinking water
quality parameters in the study area.
