Abstract:

The Research and monitoring division of lakes and waterways development Authority is working in the field of research in terms of Physico-chemical, biological, microbiological, and hydrological studies carried for different basins viz Nehrupark, Nishat, Hazrat Bal, and Nigeen basins. It also carries the study on the sediment load of inflows into the lake. The study regarding the microbiological status of the Dal Lake was carried by this division to know the effects of sewage going into the lake.
