Abstract: SAIL is India’s largest steel producer which constitutes five integrated steel plants, “Bokaro Steel Plant” being one of them. It is situated in the rich coal belt of eastern India and symbolizes India’s advancement in the design, engineering and construction of steel plants. The main source of water supply for Bokaro steel plant and township area is Damodar River. Being an industrial area the level of contamination in the drinking water is expected to be high. The research work included the investigation of the drinking water from the township as well as peripheral areas around Bokaro. The major area of study included analysing the quality of drinking water being supplied and suggestive technical recommendations for improving the drinking water quality for the people around Bokaro Steel Plant. Further presence of microbes was also detected in the drinking water.
