摘要：The recent studies have occupied the attention on the geochemical characteristics and the present study focuses on groundwater evaluation of drinking water quality and Irrigation purposes in Cuddalore district. An attempt has been made by collecting 93 groundwater samples. In this study, the samples were analyzed for major cations and anions, which include Ca2+, Mg2+, Na+, K+, Cl- ,HCO3, SO4-, PO4-, F-, NO3- and H4Sio4.The results were evaluated and compared with WHO (2011) and BIS (2014) standards to get the suitability for water utilization. In Gibbs diagram most of the samples represent the rockwater interaction process and minor evaporation field. The delineation of samples in piper tri-linear diagram evaluated groundwater type of study area. By the help of WQI, category and suitability of groundwater for drinking and irrigational purposes were determined. The results of the analysis were also interpreted with help of geology of the area. The residual sodium carbonates (RSC) and Chloro-Alkaline Indices ratio (CAI), Scholler classification were also considered to get the water quality.
