Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is among those major pulse crop which is majorly grown along the semi-arid and arid regions across the world, most often on saline soils chickpea is highly sensitive to salinity and its growth is highly affected. The main aim of this study was to examine the affect on germination and early stages of growth in chickpea by different salt concentrations in solutions. So that to determine the safe degree of salinity that can be used for the crop cultivation. Salinized artificially rooting media with sodium chloride has been used to study the salt tolerance level in chickpea varieties C-44 and Pb-91. Thus, results stated that with increase in salinity level, there was gradual decline in seedling characters, germination, yield and yield components.
