Dora Beel
Dora Beel is a large wetland and natural lake located in Rampur No. 2 village within Kamrup district, Assam, covering around 278 acres as of recent times. It is fed by the Kulsi River, which serves as both the main inlet and outlet, and plays a critical ecological role as a breeding ground for various fish species and habitat for endangered South Asian river dolphins. The beel is rich in biodiversity, supporting numerous bird species, aquatic life, and snakes.
However, Dora Beel faces threats from reduced water flow, sand mining, industrial pollution, and siltation, which have led to shrinking water coverage and declining fish and dolphin populations. Conservation efforts by local communities include annual festivals and campaigns against harmful development, aiming to protect and sustain this vital natural resource for the surrounding villages and wildlife.
The wetland also acts as a natural flood control mechanism linking with other wetlands in the region.
