Ecologists Desperate to Save Dal Lake in Kashmir

llion dollar cleanup drive. But that requires mass shifting of some 60,000 people.

The Dal Lake authority claims it has plans to spend around 74 million dollars to clean up the drain clearage system and install a sewage cleaning plant. There are plans to relocate 58 settlements around the lake to a 1,000 acre site. The first 300 families are likely to be rehabilitated by the end of the year.

Dal Lake is connected to a number of other lakes of the Kashmir valley. It is well-known for its Shikaras or, house boats.

Spread over 18 square kilometers, the lake is divided by causeways into four basins, called Gagribal, Lokut Dal, Bod Dal and Nagin. Lokut-dal and Bod-dal have an island each in the centre, known as Rup Lank (or Char Chinari) and Sona Lank respectively.
