Rejuvenate Beratena Agrahara Lake
Has anyone utilized this landmark judgement (that declared rivers as “living human entities”), pronounced five years ago, for the purpose of rejuvenating and preserving any rivers or lakes in our country?
The long compound wall passing in the middle of the photo (see the previous post of NT Unnikrishnan) acts as a divider between a well-kept, upscale, luxury apartment complex and a polluted lake (Beratena Agrahara Lake) where people dump industrial effluents, raw sewage, silt, and garbage. It doesn't require much intelligence to realize that while this superficial wall defines a property boundry, the water table underneath doesn't care much about these legal dividers.
Consequently the borewell water that the apartment dwellers use within their compound is nothing but the highly contaminated water coming from this polluted lake situated at Lavakusha Nagar, Electronic City, Bengaluru.
The property tax paid by the 900+ apartment owners alone surpasses ₹50 lakhs per annum. This is a request to the concerned BBMP officials to utilize a part of this revenue to rejuvenate the lake and maintain it properly for the use of all the people staying in the neighborhood.
