Calcium is one of the important parameter for all the organisms which regulates the various physiological functions. The calcium ions along with magnesium ions contribute to the total hardness of water. Rivers generally contain 1-2 ppm calcium, but in some areas river may contain near about 100 ppm or more % of calcium concentrations depending upon the surroundings and addition of the foreign bodies into the river water. To calculate the concentration of calcium in the present study of Neera river water, samples were collected and analyzed from eight sampling stations in the year 2018-2019. In the present work calcium concentration is having high range at some sampling stations in summer season.
