Description Coal city Dhanbad is famous for coal mining, source for many washeries, power plant, steel industries, fertilizer industries, brick clines, small industries and chimney bhhatta’s. The great source of energy coal comes through underground and opencast mining resultant air, water, land pollution affecting vegetation and agriculture of that area. The water pollution and its severity are measured through algae as bio-indicator. The quality of ponds water within Dhanbad city were sampled and tested for few parameters. The availability of algal species and its diversity correlated with water quality of ten ponds studied has shown different results. The sampling and experiment undertaken in June,2017 studied for algal species frequency, dominance, richness, evenness, diversity correlated with quality of ponds water in ten ponds located in coal city of Dhanbad.
