Jhalda II is one of the community development blocks under Purulia district in the state of West Bengal. Geographically it is situated in the eastern Chotanagpur plateau fringe. The area receives moderate to low rainfall in every monsoon season. Incidents of droughts exert its harsh effect on the socio economy of the selected areas people in almost every summer. To get rid of the situation, ground water uplift policy has been adopted which itself aggravating the state of ground water storage. Seasonal fluctuation of ground water depth mapping is an aspect which provides a clear idea about the dynamic state of ground water storage of an area. In order to support future planning present study incorporates a noble effort to mapping the ground water resource of the block as well as to find out the ground water scarcity zone.
