Abstract: This study investigates the seasonal variation in physico-chemical parameters of water quality at four major ghats (Ram Ghat, Mandakini Aartisthal Ghat, Mandakini Jal Ghat, and Satiansuyain Ghat) along the Mandakini River in Chitrakoot. Parameters such as pH, total hardness, alkalinity, chloride, dissolved oxygen (DO), and biological oxygen demand (BOD) were analyzed for both summer and winter seasons. The findings reveal fluctuations in water quality due to religious activities and inadequate waste management, highlighting the need for sustainable water management practices.
