    Thanks for sharing about photo exhibition in Sukhna Lake, a man-made lake, created by damming the seasonal stream that comes down from the Shivalik Hills. With migratory birds like Crane, Stork and Siberian Duck , people of all ages can be seen enjoying the natural beauty around or excercising. It has also been declared a protected national wetland.
