A boatman collects floating garbage and plastic waste from the algae-covered waters of Dal Lake in Srinagar, Jammu and Kashmir, on June 27, 2026. Dal Lake, a prominent tourist destination in Kashmir, faces significant ecological challenges. Tens of millions of liters of untreated sewage enter the lake daily, along with approximately 80,000 tonnes of silt annually and solid waste from nearby settlements and houseboats. Elevated nutrient levels, such as nitrogen and phosphorus, have increased the growth of aquatic weeds and algae, reduced dissolved oxygen levels, and disrupted the lake's ecosystem. The declining water quality has impacted fish habitats, breeding, and survival, leading to a decrease in native fish populations and affecting the livelihoods of local fishing communities. Environmentalists and conservation authorities express concern over these issues.
