Abstract
Across the world, the various water bodies are being exposed to different forms of environmental degradationand deterioration caused due to population explosion, urbanization and development in the industrialsector. Another factor affecting the quality of water is the aggregations of producers of the water ecosystemi.e., the phytoplankton, macro algae and occasionally colourless heterotrophic protists which can discolourthe water giving rise to foam. Due to this, there is decrease in Dissolved Oxygen (DO) level which ultimatelyaffects the ecological balance of the water and eventually leads to eutrophication in water bodies. Thepresent paper deals with water quality of Ameenpur Lake, Hyderabad, Sangareddy, Telangana, India, thefirst urban lake to be declared as a Biodiversity Heritage Site. The water quality assessment is made throughDissolved Oxygen (DO), Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) and Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD).
