Abstract: Water is a crucial constituent to sustain life on earth. For millions of rural and urban areas, the tube well water is the source for domestic use. According to one of the surveys, ground water accounts for the 50% of urban water requirement. The present study evaluates the ground water quality of the water samples collected from 15 bore wells in the study area which is situated in Rangappa Layout which is located in the Ittamadgu Village of Uttarahalli Hobli which falls in the Bangalore South taluk of the Bangalore Urban district. Water Quality Index is developed for all the samples considering various parameters like pH, Temperature, Total Suspended Solids, Turbidity, Total Dissolved Solids, Total Hardness, Electrical Conductivity, Sodium, Potassium, Ca, Mg, Cl, HCO3, CO3, NO3, F, SO4, PO4, Cr+6, Fe, Cu, Pb, Ni, Zn. The quality of water found is excellent and suitable for drinking purpose.
