However, miscreants, who have not only stolen but also broken most of the bulbs fitted to the electrical poles along the walking path, are now attempting to filch bamboo from the premises. A few days ago, the miscreants cut a bamboo plant but failed to remove it from the cluster of bamboos. “I was surprised to see that one of the bamboo plants had been cut. I immediately informed the volunteers at the lake. The authorities concerned must take measures to prevent miscreants from entering the lake,’’ said Balasubramanian S, a resident of Sai Sadan, Pai Layout.
