The river Panchganga is a highly contaminated downstream with untreated sewage and industrial effluents, while flowing through Kolhapur city. The high value of CO2, BOD, COD, phosphate, nitrate, Zn, Fe, Cu and low value of DO at discharge zone indicates increase in organic pollution as we go down the river strech Site III and Site IV.
