Wetlands of Meghalaya: Umiam Lake
Umiam Lake is an important land mark which we all can connect with. Those of us who have travelled from Guwahati side to Shillong Side along the Guwahati-Shillong NH must have at least once stopped there to take a picture of this beautiful Barapani Umiam Lake.
Umiam has entered into the Wetland List of India Portal and with it efforts are being taken for its conservation as well as to maintain the integrity of this wetland. A series of week-long awareness programmes and clean-up activities were taken up from Oct 4 2021 involving various stakeholders.
Lets together ensure that Barapani Umiam Lake remains a beautiful picture perfect land mark with respect to its natural beauty and ecological significance.
