present in the river Narmada. Materials and Method: The study does not require any special instruments
and the technique used to extract the diatoms from the waters is also very simple to perform. In this study
the acid digestion technique is not used but the technique is slightly modified in order to prevent the damage
to the walls of the diatoms. Result: Various types of diatoms were seen and the diatoms present in the water
