Monthly variation of water quality of Kanwar Lake was investigated during January to June 2017. The variation in physical and chemical parameters like pH, electrical conductivity, turbidity, total dissolved solids, alkalinity, chloride, total hardness, calcium hardness, biological oxygen demand, dissolved oxygen, chemical oxygen demand and iron were analysed. All parameters except biological oxygen demand and total dissolved solids were found under the permissible limits.
