Lakes have to be protected in a natural way, and Lakes cannot be treated as entertainment bodies, they are RWH zones, Lung space, Flora & Fauna space.
Lakes are much needed to cities like Bengaluru as it losing both Water and Greenery, and it's high time we take clear stand and define what a Lake stands for in urban context. We have already done enough damages to the Lakes and unless we have a common definition and objectives all our attempts to conserve Lakes are just lip service!
