Bengaluru lakes: How drying up of nearly 150 lakes is killing the city of gardens, Bengaluru

Of Bengaluru s nearly 800 lakes, 125 have dried up, and 25 more are on the verge of drying up, highlighting the severity of this year s summer. Most of the dried-up lakes are in Bengaluru Urban district and BBMP limits, with some lakebeds now serving as cricket pitches. The BBMP reports that 50 out of its 184 lakes are in critical condition. However, there are positive signs, as six lakes are at full capacity, and 19 are between 50% and 90% full, mainly due to valley projects. Despite this, notable lakes like Nallurahalli Lake and Vibhutipura Lake have dried up, impacting groundwater levels and fishing activities.

The official said measures would be taken to ensure maintenance of all the public toilets without compromising quality. “There are some contractors who consider maintenance of public toilets as their sole mandate but such people are only interested in collecting user fees and not concerned about the maintenance of toilets,’’ the BBMP official said. ​
