Résumé
The present study aimed at exploring the sources of salinity and the link it shares with the enrichment of As (arsenic) and F- (fluoride) in the groundwater of Rachna Doab. Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) were used as the measure of salinity to classify samples into three groups: TDS <1000 mg/L (freshwater), 1000-3000 mg/L (slightly saline) and 3000-10,000 mg/L (moderately saline). The stable isotope analysis (δ
