Sample Answer: 

• I live in Punjab, which is not a coastal area. 
• It is surrounded by land on all sides. 
• There are not much areas for fishing. 
• However, there are certain rivers, which have been dammed and the reservoirs formed by these dams have turned in fishing grounds. 
• One of these is Bhakra Nangal reservoir which is situated on the Sutlej river in the Nangal city of Punjab. 
• Nangal is very small town and most of population of the town is employed with the dam and reservoir in some way or another. 
• It is very peaceful area and as such it is considered good picnic spot, where people can spend time with nature. 
• Also, it is considerably cooler than rest of Punjab because of the reservoir. 
• I had studied about the dam and reservoir in my geography class at school. 
• When I was young, my uncle who is an Income Tax officer was posted there. 
• He commuted to Nangal every week from our hometown. 
• He gave me an open invitation to stay there with my friends during the summer vacation. 
• I asked my friends and they jumped at the idea. 
• So, we went there with my uncle on Monday morning. 
• Till 5 PM we did some exploring of the town and then he joined us in the evening and showed us all the places. 
• He took us to the reservoir, where we saw many local fishermen selling their fish. 
• We could see some fishing nets in the water but fishing mostly happened in the morning. 
• There was a very beautiful river walk along the periphery of the reservoir and we walked there enjoying the cool breeze. 
• My uncle told me that we could even come take a bath in the reservoir in the morning. 
• Then at night he made a very tasty local fish for all of us. 
• From the next day, we spent the entire time near the reservoir, swimming, playing volleyball and even trying are hand at fishing and failing miserably. 
• We had a blast and it was the most memorable part of my summer vacation that year. 
• Unfortunately, my uncle is retired now and he isn’t posted there but if I get an opportunity I would love to visit Nangal again someday.
