Wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) of SARS-CoV-2 emerged as an advantageous method to study the infection dynamics at substantial population level A temporal glimpse at sewage viral genome helps as diagnostic tool to understand the viral spread at community level. In this study for the long-term epidemiological surveillance we monitored the SARS-CoV-2 genetic material in domestic sewage by adopting the longitudinal sampling to represent a selected community (~1.8 lakhs population which
