According to a survey carried out by the
Valley Town Development Committee in Kaski district three years ago, the Rupa
lake area had shrunk to 90 hectares from 135 hectares 37 years ago. Haphazard
development works and opening of roads are to blame for the encroachment. Local
efforts to conserve the lake were not enough to and the need was for the
construction of embankment around it.
