The hydrogeological examination of 70 open dug wells reveals well diameter range between 3 meters and 9 meters, Depth of well within the range of 6-7 m.b.g.l. Static water levels ranged from 1 m. to 17 m.b.g.l. The fluctuation ranges between 2 to 12 m respectively. The ground water level maps of post and pre monsoon periods indicate that in general the ground water movement is towards the kunda River.
