STATUS OF THE QUALITY OF SPRING WATER, THE MAJOR SOURCE OF DRINKING WATER IN ILINZORARN, INDIAB. P. MishraAbstract The present study was carried out to assess the impact of seasonality on quality of the spring water in Mizoram, as this is the major source for drinking water. The findings revealed that there is direct influence of seasonal variation on water quality parameters. The result showed a marked variation in temperature (19.0°C to 27.4°C), electrical conductance (1.18 inSm-1 to 8.52 mSin-'), total dissolved.solids (36 mg/L to 458 mg/L, pH (4.1 to 7.5), total hardness (10 mg/L to 166 mg/L), acidity (4 mg/L to 72 mg/ L), total alkalinity (10 mg/L to 49 mg/L), free CO2 (2.2 mg/L to 70.4 mg/L), dissolved oxygen (4.6 mg/ L to 9.9 mg/L) and chloride content (21 mg/L to 225 mg/L).
