INTRODUCTION Groundwater is an important one source of water supply, it was occurs most of the areas, where, beneath the earth surface not in a single widespread aquifer but in thousands of local aquifer systems and compartments that have similar characters. The ground water quality is still important to the public, therefore it is important to ensure its high quality at all time so that the consumer health is not compromised. Generally, Ground water resources are affected by three major activities. i.e. The first one is excessive turn up or use of chemicals or fertilizers and/ or pesticides in agricultural areas. The second one is sewage or sludge or effluent to the environment. Finally, excessive pumping and improper management of aquifers result. And also solid waste dumping and disposal activity in an open un-engineered landfill is the one of the factor that cause the ground water pollution due to lack of pollution control interventions such as unsecured sanitary landfills , leachate treatment pond, monitoring wells, and many more Soil is a dynamic living resource whose condition is vital both to the production of food and fibber and to global balance and ecosystem function or in essence to the sustainability of life on earth. Soil, water and air are three basic natural resources upon which most life depends. Soil quality may be defined as the “capacity of soil to function within the ecosystem and land use boundaries to sustain biological productivity, maintain environmental quality and promote plant, animal and human health” (Doran and Parkin, 1994). For better management practices it is necessary to assess the soil and water quality and they will decide the performance of the crops. 2.

TOWN DIRECTORY VILLAGE It TOWNWISE PRIMARY CENSUS ABSTRACT R.P.SINGH OF THE INDIAN ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICE DIRECTOR OF CENSUS OPERATIONS ANDHRA PRADESH PUBLISHED BY THE GOVERNMENT OF ANDHRA PRADESH 1995 FOREWORD Publication of the District Census Handbooks (DCHs) was initiated after the 1951 Census and is continuing since then with .some innovations/modifications after each decennial Census. This is the most valuable district level publication brought out by the Census Organisation on behalf of each State Govt./ Uni~n Territory a~ministratio~. It Inte:­ alia Provides data/information on· some of the baSIC demographic and soclo-economlc characteristics and on the availability of certain important civic amenities/facilities in each village and town of the respective ~i~tricts. This pub~i~ation has thus proved to be of immense utility to the pJanners., administrators, academiCians and researchers. The scope of the .DCH was initially confined to certain important census tables on population, economic and socia-cultural aspects as also the Primary Census Abstract (PCA) of each village and town (ward wise) of the district. The DCHs published after the 1961 Census contained a descriptive account of the district, administrative statistics, census tables and Village and Town Directories including PCA. After the 1971 Census, two parts of the District Census Handbooks (Part-A comprising Village and Town Directories and Part-B com~iSing Village and Town PCA) were released in all the States and Union Territories. Th ri art (C) of the District Census Handbooks comprising administrative statistics and distric census tables, which was also to be brought out, could not be published in many States/UTs due to considerable delay in compilation of relevant material.
