Present manuscript reveals that river Ramganga Moradabad (U.P.) exhibits high magnitude of pollution and the relevant concentration is due to biotic and sources that possess a devastating health hazard to human plant and edible fish life. The chemical analyses of the water sample carried out with various ecological parameters violated the tolerance limits. Brownish black colour, foul odour and poor transparency indicated poor water quality. The chemical analyses of the water samples demonstrated the accumulation of heavy metals and minerals indicated organic and inorganic load, concentration of Ca, K, PO43-, crude protein and lipids were significantly lower in the seeds of water treated cultivars HI-8957 and HD-1636 of T. aestivum. However, concentration of Na, and SO42- total carbohydrates, total ash and chloride increased significantly. It is suggested that the bio accumulation of heavy metals in wheat reached above, permissible limit for human consumption, an indication of potential health risk. The adverse effect of the river Ramganga was also evident in case of survival of fish. Its water is much polluted where sewage, brass industries and glass industry effluent fall into it. This, may be mutable for farming fish, when the water of it, diluted in ratio 1:4 for the irrigation of crop, the rate of seed germination was increased. When river Ramganga was analyzed at a distance of 1.5 km. from Moradabad city has been found to be less affected for both crop and fish. This indicates that biodegradable organic matter in the diluted effluent can enhance seed germination when present in appropriate proportions.
