Detailed Solution

Wular lake has been formed due to tectonic activity. Tectonic activities are movements in a planet's crust, and the tectonic activities of rocky planets have a significant impact on their long-term evolution and volatile cycling between the interior and atmosphere. The hydrological system of the Kashmir valley depends on Wular lake. The Wular lake, the largest freshwater lake in India, was created by tectonic activity and is nourished by the Jhelum river. The lake controls water levels and provides protection against flooding, together with its wetlands.
