Bhopal, the capital city of M.P. is situated amidst the emerald lakes. This paper presents results of physico chemical and bacteriological examination of ground water layers in Bhanpur Bhopal. The study has clearly indicated that the concentration of most of the parameters is below the maximum permissible limits for TDS, alkalinity, Magnesium, chloride, sulphate, and fluoride. The bacteriological contamination at places near Bhanpur which is the dumping site of municipal solid waste was reported and at some places it even exceeded the permissible limits and not suitable for drinking purpose. The sample collection, preservation and pre treatment was according to standard method of collecting samples at international level i.e. BIS procedure. Prior to this a thorough survey conducted to know about probable pollution source and other relevant features.
