Popis: The present study was conducted to study heavy metal pollution in ground water of southern part of Upper Berach river. The water samples for the heavy metal analysis were collected from the open well of the 38 locations from Upper Berach river to find out concentration of different heavy metal such as Iron (Fe), Manganese (Mn), Copper (Cu), Zinc (Zn), Cadmium (Cd), Lead (Pb) and Nickel (Ni). The different heavy metals thematic maps of study area were prepared under GIS environment and the spatio-temporal variations of these parameters were analyzed. Results of the study indicates that about 57.94 per cent area shows Fe within BIS acceptable limit (< 0.3 mg/lit) and 42.06 per cent area show exceed Fe above acceptable limit of drinking purpose. About 42.03 per cent area shows Mn within BIS acceptable limit (< 0.1 mg/lit) and 57.97 per cent area shows Mn above permissible limit of drinking purpose.
