Abstract

Khandwa District is situated in the  south west  part of the  Madhya Pradesh, along  the  border of state Maharashtra. With   increasing water demand  in  1897, Moghat reservoir was  constructed specially to  store the  rain  water so that water requirement of the near  by area can be fulfilled. This reservoir is very  important for local people  but no much information on quality of water is available. This  study was carried out with  the purpose to  know  the planktonic characteristics of the  reservoir.
