Answer:
Arghyam has compiled a brief presentation which gives details of the permissible and desirable limits for various parameters in drinking water as per Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) specifications for potable water (IS -10500: 2012). While the standards were first published in 1983, this is the second revision available on the BIS website.
The standard was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards with the following objectives -
To assess the quality of water resources, and
To check the effectiveness of water treatment and supply by the concerned authorities.
They apply to drinking water supplied by different Authorities/ Agencies/ Departments of State Governments and Central Government, wherever applicable in the country. They also apply to water supplied by Non Government or Private Agencies for human consumption in any place of the country.
