Salinity is one of the major issues that affect water resources in various forms. It is possibly due to both natural and anthropogenic activities. Seawater intrusion, rise in the water table due to poor irrigation and drainage, disturbance in existing groundwater salinity stratification by digging bore wells, and industrial effluents are the notable natural and human‐induced groundwater salinity sources that can deteriorate the water quality by acidification and release of toxic ions into it. (Greene et al. 2016).
