Bellandur lake restoration to miss December deadline

December 04, 2024

|

The New Indian Express Bengaluru

WITH hardly 30 days remaining for the end of 2024, tonnes of silt still lying uncleared at 900 acres of Bellandur Lake and officials failing to work on wetlands, the completion of the restoration of Bellandur Lake by December 2024 is likely to go up in smoke.

- EXPRESS NEWS SERVICE @Bengaluru

In 2018, The National Green Tribunal directed the state government to keep Rs 500 Crores in an escrow account and directed to develop Bellandur as well as Varthur Lake; however, both the State government and BDA have failed in completion of project.

As per lake activists and conservationists, out of the estimated 32.33 lakh cubic meters of silt, 22.69 lakh cubic meters (70%) have been removed, leaving 30% unfinished.
