The present work has been taken to assess dynamism in physico-chemical nature of water flowing in river Gomati at Sultanpur due to recurring addition of sewage and waste water for a period of two years (i.e. June 2002 to June 2004). Parameters viz., temp., pH, BOD, COD, DO, SO4, Cl-, PO— 4, Na+, Ca,++ Mg++, TDS and total coli form were periodically tested. Majority of the values varied from permissible limit which is hazardous for the survival of aquatic life and human beings
