The desiliting and de-weeding works of the iconic Kukkarahalli Lake by the District Administration and the University of Mysore has met with serious opposition by environmentalists and walkers. A massive protest will be organised at the Deputy Commissioner’s Office on Feb. 28 from 10 am to 1 pm to draw the attention of the authorities.
Addressing a press conference at the Pathrakarthara Bhavan in city this morning, water expert U.N. Ravikumar, who is also the member of Kukkarahalli Lake Advisory Board, said that the desilting works in summer will cause irreparable damage to the water body.
