It is rich source of nutrients to fishes. Present investigation was carried out during the year of 2022-2023. Total 21 species of zooplankton were recorded. Among these 06 species belonging to Rotifera, 04 species belonging to Copepoda, 04 species belonging Cladocera and 04 species belonging to Ostracoda were found. - Species belonging to Rotifera are dominant among zooplankton which indicates the polluted nature of the lake water.
