The Son River of Sidhi district, Madhya Pradesh (MP), Central India, plays a vital role in cultivating a monetary and ordinary relationship with the people. Since it gives satisfactory rich fields and advancement inclines water framework practices and fulfills individuals' step-by-step needs. It is essential for the people of Sidhi and Madhya Pradesh because of the rich regular asset. The water quality index (WQI) tool is used to determine the quality of river Son by selecting four sampling stations. Maximum WQI value gained during the post-monsoon season in all of the stations followed by monsoon and pre-monsoon. Sampling stations upstream of the river experience deteriorating WQI due to the presence of the hydroelectric dam, changing landuse practices, increasing settlements and deforestation in the catchment and river banks. WQI showed good water quality, which can be used for drinking, irrigation and other purposes. The assessment found that pH, DO, and BOD contributes a huge part in affecting the WQI of the stream. Our study found that the condition of water quality necessities to accept suitable organization procedures and assurance attempts. It is inferred that WQI was demonstrated as an instrument or device in differentiating the water quality of different sources. It gives the public a general considered potential water-related issues in a particular area. This tool is very useful for calculating water quality status, which are particularly significant to general society or policymakers and water quality organizations to amass relevant information.
