Human activities can affect both the quality and quantity of groundwater. Infiltration of pollutants to the groundwater level can change its composition and excessive pumping can lead to lowering of water table. By diverting the rivers and canal construction, the natural recharge of groundwater can change which may lead to both increase and decrease in water table depending on the area under consideration.
