Water Quality

The study looked at bugs living in rivers in Gadchiroli district to see if they can tell us about water quality. They found that different bugs live in different places, with some sites having more diverse bugs than others. The bugs at site-I were the healthiest and had the most species, while site-III had the least diverse bugs and poorer water quality. Overall, the bugs can help us understand how clean the water is in these rivers.
