Talabs (Lakes), Baudy (Wells constructed by Adil Shahi Sultans in 16&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; &amp;amp;17&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; century ) and bore wells are water resources of the study area. Thirty six samples from different sources at different locations were collected in different seasons during Year 2010-11. The parameters: pH, EC, TDS, Turbidity, Total hardness and content of Fluoride, Sulphate, Chloride&amp;nbsp; were studied and compared with the standard values prescribed by ICMR, WHO and APHA. The present investigation revealed that the quality of water of a source varies from season to season and some of the water samples are unfit for drinking and utility purpose.&lt;/p&gt;
