Kashmir's Iconic Dal Lake Battles Pollution And Algae Amid Ongoing Restoration Efforts
An excavator unloads weeds from a floating barge onto a truck after they are removed from the waters of Dal Lake in Srinagar, Jammu and Kashmir, on June 27, 2026. Dal Lake, a prominent tourist destination in Kashmir, faces ecological challenges due to untreated sewage, silt, and solid waste entering the lake. Elevated nutrient levels have led to increased growth of aquatic weeds and algae, affecting the lake's ecosystem and fish populations, which impacts local fishing communities. Environmentalists and conservation authorities express concerns over these issues. (Photo by Firdous Nazir/NurPhoto)
