Azam rubber product is located in sector 13 of G.I.D.A Gorakhpur producing many rubbers products. It is well known industry and is a top supplier of pu slippers and pu shoes. Many industries dump its discharge in the river Ami, ultimately polluting it. Azam rubber product being among one of the industries polluting it. The statement of problem suggested that the temporal images of the industry showed the darkening of the images around the industry in the year 2009, 2015 and 2022 respectively. The research is carried out to find out the ground truth data. The physico-chemical parameters were analyzed, temperature, pH, Turbidity, Free Carbon Dioxide and Total Suspended Solids were recorded within the standard limit. Whereas Total Dissolved Solids, Dissolved Oxygen, Biological Oxygen Demand and Chemical Oxygen Demand were recorded much higher than standard value.
