Highlights
Aquatic bacteria forms most dangerous constituents of potable water and play a vital role in causing enteric disorders, bacteriological examination of potable water is a greater importance from the public health point of view
Primary objective of bacteriological examination of water is the detection of faecal pollution
Results of the present study revealed that the water is bacteriologically contaminated and contains faecal coli forms and faecal streptococci above the permissible limits for potability
Summary
Aquatic bacteria forms most dangerous constituents of potable water and play a vital role in causing enteric disorders, bacteriological examination of potable water is a greater importance from the public health point of view.
