Access to clean, safe water is essential for human health and well-being. Water quality in Chhattisgarh, a state in central India, has been a source of worry owing to industrial activity, agricultural runoff, and poor sanitation. This project will investigate the physiochemical and microbiological quality of water in various areas throughout Chhattisgarh, giving critical information on the overall water quality state. Physiochemical parameters such pH, turbidity, TDS, DO, BOD, COD, and heavy metal concentrations were investigated. Microbial tests were also performed to detect the presence of coliforms, Escherichia coli, and other infections. Water samples were collected, kept, and tested using predetermined processes. To capture water quality oscillations, samples were gathered from a range of sources, including rivers, ponds, wells, and tap water, throughout various seasons. Preliminary studies show considerable differences in physiochemical parameters and microbiological contamination levels between locales. Industrial and agricultural regions are highly polluted, including high levels of heavy metals and microbiological pollutants. These findings have significant consequences for both human health and the environment. Contaminated water sources increase the risk of waterborne infections, compromising community health and economic output. This comprehensive study of water quality in Chhattisgarh provides a foundation for policymakers, environmental agencies, and community stakeholders to develop targeted activities for water quality management and pollution reduction. Watershed management, industrial effluent treatment, and public awareness campaigns are essential measures for conserving water resources and ensuring that all Chhattisgarh residents have access to clean drinking water
