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.
