The Site is an oxbow lake bordered to the north and west by the dense forest of Udaipur Wildlife Sanctuary. The lake surrounds a village. Over 280 plant species are found in the wetland, including Alysicarpus roxburghianus, a perennial herb endemic to India. The wetland is an important wintering ground for around 35 migratory bird species, including the vulnerable common pochard (Aythya ferina). Jamun trees (Syzygium cumini) line the wetland and their fallen fruits are believed to purify the water. The wetland faces threats from illegal fishing and intensive agriculture, particularly the use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides.
