Weeds and lotus plantations choking the Dal lake. Increased agricultural activity and loss of green cover in catchment area of the Dal lake resulted in surface erosion and leaching of soil nutrients. The silt and nutrients from the catchment find its way into the lake. Over the years this resulted in the reduction of lake areas and enriching the lake with nutrients. Excessive nutrients lead to the growth of exotic weeds.
