Cleaning Operation To Remove Weeds From Srinagar's Dal Lake
Kashmir's Lakes and Waterways Authority uses vessels to collect weeds from Dal Lake as part of a cleanup operation in Srinagar, Jammu and Kashmir, on October 1, 2025. Authorities step up restoration efforts of Dal Lake, the main tourist attraction in the heart of Srinagar, with measures including deploying floating trash booms to capture plastic and other debris, as concerns mount over its shrinking size and deteriorating health.
