Diverse nature of agro-based industrial effluents from various industries are disposed off in to soil and water bodies, which has been causing major pollution problem. To economize the irrigation water industrial effluents are now a days commonly used for irrigation. The present study has been carried out to assess the impact of paper mill effluent on seed germination and seedling growth of Coriander (Coriandrum sativum) varieties KS and Mehak. The pot culture experiment was conducted with the different concentrations like viz., 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90% and 100% along with control (Tap water). Physico-chemical parameters included colour, pH, temperature, turbidity, electrical conductivity (EC), total solids (TS), total dissolved solids (TDS), suspended solids (SS), chemical oxygen demand (COD), biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), total hardness (TH), total alkalinity (TA) and chloride (Cl-). The growth parameters such as germination percentage, seedling vigour, plant length, fresh and dry weight were measured at 14th DAS (days after sowing). The results indicate that at lower concentration there is a significant increase in the percentage of seed germination and other growth parameters but decreased with increase in effluent concentration.
