Today, while passing by bellandur tank bund road, I noticed that the lake was being fenced.
There were two sets of fencing being done. One on the boundary of the lake - on one side of the road, and the other on the opposite side of the road. I did not have a camera( camera phone) to take the pics.( will try to do the same in my next visit or some other praja can fill on the same).
I am presuming this is part of this project of chain link fencing a host of lakes in city.
I checked the tenders for the same has been already awarded ( can be checked in this site
eproc.karnataka.gov.in . So, probably this activity has started for other lakes also.
This is atleast a start in improving/cleaning/maintaining this lake. However, one thing to worry about is there is no plan of green belt for bellandur lake. There seems to be no space earmarked for the same either.
