“The Achabal Spring in Kashmir has dried up.”
The Achabal Gardens, where the spring is located, is a historic Mughal garden built around 1620 A.D. by Empress Nur Jahan. The garden is renowned for its cascading waterfalls and the pristine Achabal Spring, which is believed to be a re-emergence of the Brengi river.
The most recent significant event related to the Achabal springs occurred in March 2022, when a sudden rise in water levels caused concern among locals. This surge was possibly linked to a sinkhole that had developed in the Brengi stream in February 2022, affecting the water flow in the region.
