Mysuru: The two-member Expert Committee appointed by Karnataka Lake Development Authority has recommended that development works including de-silting initiated by the University of Mysore must not be taken up at the iconic Kukkarahalli Lake.
In a report submitted to Mysuru Deputy Commissioner D. Randeep, the Committee recommended against dredging of the water body, an important bird and biodiversity area, as it would cause irreparable damage to the Lake. The recommendations come as a major relief to environmentalists and green groups who were against any sort of development at the Lake and had carried out a series of campaigns.
