Kashmir is known worldwide for its beauty. Even beauty is such that it does not go away. A unique example of this beauty is Dal Lake in Srinagar. The market in the lake remains a center of attraction among people all over the world.
There is also a floating vegetable market inside Dal Lake which is quite famous. You will be surprised to know that people come by boat to buy vegetables in this vegetable market of Dal Lake.
Explain that this vegetable market of Dal Lake is the wholesale vegetable market of Srinagar, which opens in the morning and lasts for about two to three hours.
During this time, there is a lot of activity in the vegetable market of Dal Lake. However, due to pollution and encroachment on Dal Lake and the surrounding area, the lake has reduced to less than half its original size.
Its capacity has decreased by forty percent.
Intense pollution from untreated sewage and solid wastes flowing into the lake, water channels, and encroachments have reduced circulation and flow in the lake, leading to the widespread development of hyacinth.
