Alka Kataria, T. I Khan

Abstract: The Dudu tehsil lies in south west region of Jaipur district and covers an area of 1, 870.64 sq. km. Twenty five ground water samples were collected (five from each village) from five villages of the tehsil between January to June, 2014. These samples were analyzed for fluoride content. Fluoride value in the samples ranged between 0.19 to 3.70 mg/ l. Other parameters like EC, pH, Total Dissolved Solids, Total alkalinity, Total hardness, Nitrate and Chloride were also studied. Some of these parameters were higher than the permissible limit which makes water unfit for human consumption.
