Which consequence resulted from inadequate sediment trapping within the Mughal-era Shalimar Bagh water channels?

💡 Explanation

Silting reduces the Mughal fountain jet heights because hydraulic head decreases due to the increased flow resistance from sediment accumulation which reduces the input pressure; therefore, jets weakened, rather than salt accumulation or algae blockage, these related instead to water chemistry or direct biological growth.
