J&K in India experienced one of the worst floods in the past 60 years, during first week of September 2014, due to unprecedented and intense rains affecting around 22 lac people all over the state. The satellite based rapid flood assessment report by collaboration of national Remote Sensing Centre (NRSC), Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) and Department of Ecology, Environment and Remote Sensing (DEERS) revealed that the floods were a result of high rainfall in the catchments over short period of time, which were of the intensity of cloud bursts and a combined effect of the extreme event due to climate change and less capacity of the drainage system that failed to hold Fig -1: Kashmir valley surrounded by mountains on all the quantum of water and it overflowed, which ultimately sides [1] led to floods.

In the last four decades the water quality of Dal Lake has undergone enormous changes and which in turn had make it useless for domestic use and aesthetic view. Extension of land use in lake could increase the use of fertilizers which could cause the problem of eutrophication. The paper is an attempt to present condition of water quality in lake. Water quality can be assessed by different parameters like BOD, pH, nitrate, phosphorus turbidity etc.From the test results and data we observed that the maximum surface of lake water is covered by weeds which is the result of higher concentration of nitrate and phosphorous which directly results into siltation of lake water. Due to the higher values of BOD, COD it results the less amount of dissolved oxygen present in the lake water which causes the direct threat to Lake Ecosystem.

Acknowledgement Lakes and Water bodies are one of the most important natural resources of our State. Apart from being most valuable natural habitat for number of flora and fauna, these lakes and Water bodies are the life line for number of communities of our state. No systematic scientific study for monitoring and planning of these lakes and water bodies was carried out and more than 90%of our lakes and water bodies are till date neglected altogether. The department realized the need of creating the first hand information long back in 1998 and prepared the Directory of lakes and water bodies using Survey of India Topographical Maps on 1:50,000.With the advent of satellite technology the study of these lakes and water bodies has become easier and the task of creating of information pertaining to these lakes and water bodies using latest high resolution data along with Survey of India Topographical Maps and other secondary information available with limited field checks/ground truthing has been carried out to provide latest information regarding the status of these lakes and water bodies.
