Abstract
The study investigates the hydrogeochemical studies in and around Dharamshala area, district Kangra, Himachal Pradesh. The study hypothesis encompasses the groundwater and surface water sample collection for three seasons (post-monsoon, winter season and pre-monsoon). The physio-chemical analysis is conducted to assess the water quality in the area and all the tested parameters are found to be under maximum permissible limit, except fluoride. To identify the source of fluoride, geochemical correlation technique is used which suggest that the possible source of fluoride in water is geogenic. The study recommends proper attention to this issue as fluoride contamination can cause severe health issues. So, water treatment techniques should be implemented in the area. The water level is also estimated for the same seasons to evaluate the seasonal water level fluctuation and creation of hydrogeology map of the study area. The study area has high relief and it is blessed with a vast network of streams. So, the water level ranges from 0 to 69 mbgl in the study area and general groundwater flow direction is towards south-west. The springs water discharge and Dal Lake water level has dropped from post-monsoon to pre-monsoon season, which suggest that the key source of water is rainwater in the area. The solid waste open dumping, use of fertilizers and pesticides, and slate mining etc. are some factors that are harassing the environment of the study area. Hence, Proper mitigation measures should be implemented.
