The major water quality concerns as revealed from the monitoring results arepathogenic pollution as reflected through indicators i.e. Total Coliforms (TC) & Faecal Coliform (FC),organic matter as reflected through Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) and salinity as reflected throughconductivity. The observed range of water quality parameters in major Indian rivers for the year 2011along with summary for the year 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010 is given inTable 3.1 for comparative assessment of water quality trend between the years.40
