Twilight...at Sukhna Lake - a photo on Flickriver

            Literally it seems...Situated in Shivalik Foothills in Lower Himalayas in Chandigarh originally on 3 sq. km area , this lake has shrunk and is in danger because of excessive silt ...Efforts are on to revive this precious wetland which is home to a variety of migratory birds....Mercifully, last season Rain gods smiled on the lake.... 
This picture taken near Regulator end where a platform of silt was made to take out further silt from the lake.
