Abstract
The hydrogeology of the southwest district of National Capital Territory (NCT) Delhi is challenging on the account of the fact that the quality of groundwater in the district shows horizontal and vertical variation with respect to salinity. The present paper tries to study the variation in the depth to fresh (electrical conductivity equal to or below 1500-2000 micro siemens per cm)/saline (electrical conductivity above 1500-2000 micro siemens per cm) water interface of the district and locate the factors controlling the variation in the depth to fresidsaline interface in the groundwater of the district. The map showing variation in the depth to fresh/saline interface In the groundwater of the district was studied Vis-a-Vis geology and cultural practices In the district, in order to identify the factors controlling the variation in the depth to fresh/saline water interface in the groundwater of the district.
