Abstract Appraisal of groundwater fitness to drinking, agricultural, and domestic purposes was attempted within the Thiruvallur district South India since is significant sources for above utilities. Groundwater samples collected from a sum 110 locations have be analyzed major concentrations which higher values total dissolved solids (TDS), chloride (Cl − ), sodium (Na + ) ions were noted during...

on water related issues, we find a visible absence of women as water professionals. At the micro level, women are organized to manage and maintain drinking water sources and infrastructure, but they are absent in the irrigation sector which relates more to commodity production. At the meso level, civil society groups hardly have women water activists and even fewer articulating gender concerns ...
