This paper deals with the study of pollution trend in Hindon river between Meerut and Greater Noida stretch along with change in their population density, types of industries and l iving standards. It was observed that heavy metal pollution increases when we move from Meerut to Mohan Nagar and decreases when we further move towards Greater Noida. Organic pollution and BOD level increased many folds then the permissible limits in Meerut and Greater Noida. Concentration of inorganic ions gradually increases from Meerut to Greater Noida. Where population density is high, organic pollution dominates and where industries are more, heavy metal and inorganic ions load is more. With increase in pollution level, risk of exposure to diseases also increased so, we should emphasize on pollution treatment and control.
