Three Truxors imported from Switzerland to restore glory of our DAL LAKE .
Truxors are state of art machines that are used for cutting and dredging under water growth even in swamps and narrow channels . These machines can be used on land as well as on water . TRUXOR can also be used for restoration of blocked water ways .The machines cut abnoxious weeds . Every Truxor has attachments to undertake more water management jobs . LAWDA ( lake and water ways Development Authority ) has also procured two Water Master Machines from Finland for cleaning Dal lake . We also see deweeding work being done manually in the lake . Root Millers , choppers and skimmers are being considered by LAWDA for speeding up the cleaning process .
A good news for all kashmiris.
I have visited almost all the interior parts of the lake in 2009 and 2010 and observed as under
_The Algal Blooms have a malignant growth in the entire lake periphery and need to be attacked more vigorously . The Bigger Dal on HazratBal side is totally choked with this wild growth .
_The roads , buildings and the Unauthorized habitation within the lake needs to be cleared sympathetically to stop water pollution in the lake . House Boats need to be shifted to the Bay proposed . Can it be done ?
_ The canal system link of Smaller Dal and Hazratbal Dal and Nigeen lake needs to be cleared of all vegetation , unauthorized habitation , floating gardens and land masses created for growing vegetables.
_ Fish and fisheries development programme needs to be kept in focus once cleaning has been done.
_ Silt coming to the lake from Telbal Nallah needs to be stopped from slipping to the lake waters once for all .
Every body shall agree that the lake size has shrunk . The lake has undergone morphometric changes . There is a change in the water chemistry of the lake. The condition of lake area near Hazrat Bal shrine is simply pathetic .
Well begun by LAWDA is not half done . But hope still keeps us happy that one day every Kashmiri shall see Hazratbal shrine clearly from Nehru Park bank of the lake . The conservation rate has to be faster than the deterioration rate .
Can it be done ? I ask my friends in LAWDA?
Hum ne Maana Ki Tagaaful na karoge Lekin
Khaak Ho Jaayeinge Hum Tum Ko Khabar Hone Tak.
