Maharana Pratap Sagar, Reservoir in Kangra District, India
The Maharana Pratap Sagar stretches across 24,529 hectares in the Shivalik hills, featuring a 15,662-hectare lake formed by the Beas River dam.
The construction of India's highest earthfill dam on the Beas River in 1975 led to the creation of this extensive water body named after Rajput king Maharana Pratap.
The submerged Bathu Temples emerge between March and June when water levels decrease, revealing ancient architectural structures from the region's past.
The reservoir links to major cities with Pathankot Railway Station 70 kilometers away and regular bus services connecting to Delhi, Chandigarh, and Dharamshala.
This Ramsar Convention wetland hosts 220 bird species from 54 families and maintains a fishing industry supporting 1,500 local fishermen throughout the year.
