The water quality of Lake Pichhola is highly polluted. The bacterial load of lake water is very high and the values of biological oxygen demand (BOD) show its pollution status. Attempt has been made to relate water quality with the observed waste water discharge in this lake. The overall results from the present investigation indicate that this water body is rapidly under going through process of eutrophication advancement. Therefore, suitable restoration programme should be initiated for the sustained use of this lake, as the lake attracts thousands of tourists from domestic and international level every year.
