This study evaluates the physico-chemical and biological quality of groundwater and assesses its suitability for drinking and irrigation purposes. Water samples from various districts of Telangana were analyzed for key parameters such as pH, electrical conductivity (EC), total dissolved solids (TDS), hardness, major cations (Ca²⁺, Mg²⁺, Na⁺, K⁺), major anions (HCO₃⁻, SO₄²⁻, Cl⁻, NO₃⁻), and heavy metals. The results were compared with WHO and Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) guidelines for drinking water. Irrigation water quality was assessed using sodium adsorption ratio (SAR), residual sodium carbonate (RSC), and permeability index (PI). The study reveals that groundwater quality varies significantly across Telangana, with some regions exhibiting high salinity and nitrate contamination, making them unsuitable for direct consumption or long-term irrigation without treatment or management interventions.</p> Puliventla Rajanikanth Naveen Kumar Singh Copyright (c) 2026 2026-03-02 2026-03-02 27 1 01 03 10.69980/redvet.v27i1.2370
