It is any relatively large body of stagnant water that occupies the inland basin. Although the difference between lakes, ponds or rivers, and other bodies are not well defined, we can say that streams and rivers move faster than Lakes. If defined geologically, lakes are temporary bodies of water. Globally lakes contribute to a very small quantity of all available water i.e. 0.009%. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Lakes can be classified by two ways:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Natural lakes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Artificial lakes. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ixambee.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/1-1024x576-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23588\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.ixambee.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/1-1024x576-1.png 1024w, https:\/\/blog.ixambee.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/1-1024x576-1-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/blog.ixambee.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/1-1024x576-1-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/blog.ixambee.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/1-1024x576-1-696x392.png 696w, https:\/\/blog.ixambee.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/1-1024x576-1-747x420.png 747w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Uses of Lakes:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Lakes are used for commercial purposes, large lakes provide a form of transport for heavy and bulky goods like coal, iron, machinery, etc. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Water is essential for day to day life. Thus, lakes can be used as water storage for domestic usage of towns or industrial cities. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Lakes are generally used for hydroelectric power generation. Both natural and artificial lakes are used but natural lakes are preferred over manmade lakes to generate hydroelectric power. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Besides generating electricity lakes also works for agricultural and irrigation purposes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It is also used for fishing because lakes are generally connected with rivers and oceans which brings fishes to the lakes. It helps industries engaged in fishing. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Lakes are used for tourism purposes also. Tourists use lakes for boating and fishing.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Lakes in India is one of the important topics in the General Awareness section. One to two questions can be expected from this topic in the upcoming <strong>SSC CGL 2019 and Railway NTPC<\/strong> examinations.

Lakes harbor different aquatic species, from fish and amphibians to birds that migrate. Several lakes, such as Odisha&#8217;s Chilika Lake, are designated as Ramsar sites due to their high importance as wetlands. Ecosystems are responsible for recharging groundwater, controlling floods, and supporting local microclimates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Famous Mythological and Historical Lakes of India<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Some of India&#8217;s lakes are historically and mythologically significant. Pushkar Lake in Rajasthan is a holy one, and it is believed to have been formed by Lord Brahma. It is one of the very few temples for Brahma in India. Manimahesh Lake in Himachal Pradesh is associated with Lord Shiva and attracts pilgrims during the Manimahesh Yatra. Nainital Lake in Uttarakhand is also associated with Hindu mythology, and it is claimed to be one of the 51 Shakti Peethas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Threats to Indian Lakes<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite their importance, many Indian lakes are at severe risk of becoming extinct due to pollution, encroachment, and global warming. Many water bodies lost their habitats due to urban development, especially in metro cities such as Bengaluru, with the case of Bellandur Lake involving mass pollution. The release of sewage, industrial waste, and plastic wastage has polluted a number of lakes, making them dirty water bodies. In addition, climate change has altered rainfall patterns, resulting in some lakes drying up while flooding others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Conservation Initiatives for Lakes in India<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Several conservation initiatives have been established to counter these issues. The National Plan for Conservation of Aquatic Ecosystems (NPCA) aims at the conservation and restoration of lakes and wetlands. The Manipur Loktak Development Authority has progressed towards cleaning and rejuvenating Loktak Lake, a significant freshwater lake in Northeast India. Similarly, Dal Lake in Kashmir has also been cleaned with houseboat sewage management schemes. Local initiative schemes, such as lake restoration campaigns in urban cities like Hyderabad and Pune, have also helped to revive dry lakes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Lakes as a Source of Livelihood<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Lakes employ thousands of people engaged in fishing, tourism, and agriculture. Kerala&#8217;s Vembanad Lake has a thriving backwater tourist industry that provides houseboats and birdwatching. The fishermen along the Wular Lake, Kashmir, earn their livelihood depending on the lake, catching trout and carp. Chilika Lake boasts a prawn cultivation industry that is renowned and provides considerable revenue to the economy of the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Lakes and Festivals in India<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There are several cultural festivals centered around lakes. Ganesh Chaturthi, celebrated in Maharashtra, is associated with the immersion of Ganesh idols at lakes such as Powai Lake and Rankala Lake. Chhath Puja, mainly celebrated in Bihar and Uttar Pradesh, sees devotees gathering by lakes and river fronts to offer prayers to the Sun God. In Rajasthan, the Gangaur Festival is celebrated with processions in lakes such as Pichola Lake in Udaipur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Lakes are a constituent of India&#8217;s natural and cultural heritage. Despite their numerous benefits, their degradation can have dire environmental consequences. It is crucial to implement sustainable conservation practices and involve local people in the preservation of these precious water bodies for future generations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re preparing for the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ixambee.com\/exams\/ssc-cgl\"><strong>SSC CGL Exam<\/strong><\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ixambee.com\/online-course\/ultimate-beebanker\"><strong>ixamBee <\/strong><\/a>offers top-notch resources to help you succeed!
