“The idea behind conducting the survey was to identify gaps in fencing and highlight its impact on lakes’ biodiversity. At all seven lakes that we surveyed, multiple gaps in fencing were observed,” said Raghavendra B Pachhapur of ActionAid Association, the NGO that conducted the survey.
The situation at Gowdanapalya Lake has raised eyebrows, as it remains without any protective fencing, essentially extending an open invitation to potential violators. A new gate installed at Kothnur Lake lacks sufficient fencing, leaving the lake ecology exposed to potential harm. Chunchaghatta Lake, a rejuvenated lake, lacks adequate fencing, while Dorakere is said to have eight gateways to the lake. Konnanakunte Lake, rejuvenated in 2023, has a 100-meter boundary still with an old broken fence.
