An attempt was made to compare the water quality of Rani-Pond and Surajkund, Aurangabad using the overall Index of Pollution and Water Quality Index from March-June2023. Water temperature, pH, electrical conductivity, dissolved oxygen, biochemical oxygen demand, total alkalinity, hardness, total dissolved solids, chloride, nitrate, and turbidity were all calculated using standard methods. The overall Index of Pollution and Water Quality Index were calculated by comparing these values to the standard. According to this observation, there are significant differences in the parameters of the two ponds. Dissolved oxygen, total alkalinity, turbidity, electrical conductivity, and total dissolved solid (in Rani Pond) were all found to be above standard limits. The values 2.3-3.35 of the overall Index of Pollution estimated that the water of Rani-Pond and Surajkundi were slightly polluted (C4) during the summer season. The Water Quality Index with turbidity classified the pond water as poor to unsuitable for use, while the Index without turbidity classified it as good for use. The study emphasises the importance of using water quality indices that indicate the total effect of ecological factors on surface water quality and provides a simple interpretation of monitoring data to assist local people in improving water quality, implementing proper management policies, and conserving these water bodies.
