Another myth surrounding this lake is that it was created as a safe haven by a Mizo girl named Rishi who had magical abilities and was fleeing from her cruel stepmother. There are several other such stories surrounding this lake. The lake is 3Kms from the Indo Myanmar border town of Zokhawthar in Champai district.
