In addition to 39 kalyanis and 418 mobile immersion tankers put in place at strategic residential locations by the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP), citizens’ lake groups have come up with many such initiatives to ensure the city’s lakes are not polluted this Ganesha festival.
The hearings by lake groups were postponed, but this year, the hearings resumed and citizens have sought definite clarification from the court on being able to revive MoUs with non-corporate entities.

Sathischandra Karanth was busy clicking pictures of a garden lizard at
Puttenahalli Lake, when he caught a glimpse of a rare spider. The spider belonging to the Chrysilla Volupe species, jumped up and sat on the lizard’s head and
Karanth captured the moment. The Puttenahalli Neighbourhood Lake Improvement Trust (
PNLIT) and naturalists who frequent the lake are ecstatic about the spotting of the rare spider and even conducted a
Bioblitz event last Sunday to explore the world of smaller insects in the park around the lake.
