We Indians are good at forming committes to look into a variety of aspects and so there is one commitee called LPC ( Lake protection committe) formed by Hyderabad Metro authority to protect and take action on Lake encroachments. They have web presence at http://www.hmda.gov.in/lakephotos4.html. They talk about some 10 lakes while there are 100s in and around the city.
As usual they keep kidding citizens about the actions they are taking on Lake encroachments. I have posted a video about Burgulkunta Lake in the heart of Gachibowli economic zone. It is a straight case of criminal negligence by the authorities while the Lake is dying. Fishermen used to fish in the lake and sell their wares in the weekend market. All fish died beacuse of sewage being dumped into the lake by a hotel and apartment complexes.
The video of the sad state of the lake is posted at this address - http://youtu.be/irUNnbRm8LY.
