Allahabad district cover an area of 5246 sq.km. The study area was located in Allahabad city in the south- eastern part of U.P (98m above the mean sea level). The DO conditions in a river are provided by appropriate mathematical models relating the BOD-DO concentrations after the discharge of organic pollutants in a water body Both these parameters together are useful in tracing the pollution conditions and natural purification abilities of river and in determining permissible level of organic pollutants discharged in to the water bodies. The biodegradable contaminants in water are quantified in terms of BOD, a parameter most related to DO. Dissolved oxygen (DO) of the river is one such parameter that is often used to measure the effect of pollution on the river. A wide variety of water quality variables is affected by various human activities while interacting with the water bodies. All kinds of wastes (domestic, industrial, agricultural and others) are often discharged into the surface water bodies like lagoons, rivers and streams with little or no regard to their assimilative capacities. Pollution of river bodies has become a major global problem that is more critical in developing nations of the world due to inadequate measures to protect the surface water quality.
The Canal is being polluted due to massbathing, washing, disposal of sewage, industrial waste and these human activities are deterioratingits water quality (Seth et al., 2013).Ĭlean water is absolutely essential for a healthy living. The Ganga is a division and parcel of everyday life in the city and thousands of peoplebath daily in the Ganga, but the heaviness on the Ganga is increasing enormously due to ever increasing population, industrial and urban growth in the basin. The Ganga has great ritual importance among pilgrims and touristsin India. The Ganga basin accounts for a little more than one-fourth(26.3%) of the countrys total geographical area and is the biggest basin in India,Ĭovering the entirestates of Uttarakhand (CPCB, 2013). Thewater is contaminated due to population explosion,urbanization, industrialization and agriculturalpollution cause major alteration of water pollution.It is estimated that the Global annual risk ofcontracting infections disease from eating rawvegetables irrigated with untreated wastewater is in the range of 5- 15% (Fattal et al., 2004). Today pollution is one of the biggestproblems of water quality degradation in the Gangaand its tributaries increasing from year to year dueto the increase pollutant loads particularly fromcommercial and domestic sources, sewage dischargeand industrial effluent (Matta et al., 2014). It is important to all livingorganisms, most ecological systems, human health,food production and economic development (Postelet al., 1996).The water is used for various purposessuch as drinking without treatment, bathing, noncontactrecreational uses, public water supplies,industrial, agricultural, aquaculture and wildlifepropagation, navigation and waste receiving etc.(Sundararajan and Anand, 2011), But the clarity doesnot remain constant and varies from place to placein nature. Water is one of the mainly essential of all natural resources known on earth.

The paper concludes with multidimensional recommendations for the improvement of water quality of both the Rivers. In this research paper we discussed for comparison between the Ganga and Yamuna rivers on waters pollution. The water of the rivers is not healthy for humans body, biological environments and ecological systems. According to water pollution OD and BOD are decreased and the water quality in terms of OD and BOD is not fit for designated best uses in the India. The quality of water flowing in the river which being polluted by water by sewage and animal waste and can cause diseases like gastroenteritis, salmonella infection, dysentery, hepatitis. The most of all countries are affective for this problem.
