Water represents the basic elements supporting life and the natural environment, a primary component for industry, a consumer item for humans and animals, and a vector for domestic and industrial pollution. Much of ill health that affects humanity, especially in the developing countries can be traced to lack of safe and wholesome water supply. There can be not state of positive health and well being without water. In order to find out the relationship amongst different physico-chemical parameters of water samples, correlation coefficient are worked out and the large number of significant correlations are obtained. The result obtained from 25 water samples from selected places i.e. MVP Colony and Old post office area were found to be acceptable for drinking purpose .While those collected from Lawson’s Bay colony, Akkyapalem, Dugra Bazar and Yendada were found unfit for drinking purpose. So, it can be concluded that though the quality of water in most places in Visakhapatnam is acceptable there are also few places where water needs to properly treated before consumption.
