In this study, it is observed that Dal lake is receiving discharges of wastewater from domestic and tourism industry. Sewage has consisted of nutrients like nitrogen, phosphates that are responsible for the growth of algal bloom/ aquatic vascular plants. That unwanted growth of aquatic plants and sprawling all over the lake is a significant concern about quality deterioration and aesthetic beauty.
