The paper  published the preliminary results of Groundwater Quality Studies in a Betwa Command Area in Vidisha District. Water quality varies seasonally, some wells showing increase in salinity as water level in the post monsoon period. Water quality is identified based on various geochemical classifications. Water samples collected from different wells were analysed using standard laboratory techniques. Modified stiff, piper trilinear diagrams and trend surface maps were constructed to identify the chemical character of the shallow groundwater. Groundwater has been analysed and found suitable for general domestic and irrigation purposed except some which are intensively irrigated.
