Anchar Lake (lit.'Pickle'; Urdu pronunciation:[ɑ̃ːt͡ʃɑːɾ]; Kashmiri pronunciation:[ãːt͡ʃaːr]pronunciationⓘ) is a lake located in Soura in the Srinagar district of the Indian-administered Jammu and Kashmir in the disputed Kashmir region.
Situated close to Ganderbal, the lake is connected with the famous Dal Lake via a channel "Amir Khan Nallah" which passes through Gilsar and Khushal Sar. The lake is in a highly deteriorated condition. In case of flooding, the excessive water of Dal is diverted here.[1]
The Shallabugh Wetland extends to include Anchar Lake, which serves as a vital water source for the interconnected wetland ecosystem. It plays a pivotal role in maintaining the balance of aquatic life and promoting environmental harmony in the region. This wetland serves as a connecting link between Anchar Lake and the Sind River.[2]
