Abstract: Water is perhaps the most precious natural resource after air. Though the surface of the earth is mostly consists of water, only a small part of it is usable, which makes this resource very limited. This precious and limited resource, Therefore, must be used with prudence. As water is required for different purposes, the suitability of it must be checked before use. Also, sources of water must be monitored regularly to determine whether they are in sound health or not. Poor. Poor condition of water bodies are not only the indictor of environmental degradation, it is also a threat to the ecosystem. Condition of water bodies are not only the indictor of environmental degradation. The purpose of this study was to assess the degree of pollution of Prakasha barrage on Tapi river water by determining various physico-chemical parameters. Water samples were collected three times per year during winter, summer and rainy season at the following locations. Most of the measured physicochemical parameters exceeded permissible limit of drinking water.
