Hi Akhilesh,
I dont know why this blog of yours has appeared under a transportation dialogue. My answers to your queries are as follows:
1. You will get my name at bottom of this message
2. Bellandur Lake has great potential to be developed on the lines of Lake Interlarken in Switzerland!
3. I guess as a catchment area for rainwater and sewage / grey water runoffs from the city
4. Lots can be done if BBMP / BWSSB / LDA etc have the will and guts (?) to take bold steps. Technology has made it possible to install self cleaning mechanisms which run on solar energy. No chemicals and minimal maintenance. Proposals are with BBMP, but nobody wants to lift a little finger. You should drop in one day at the CE's office in Utility building - 9th floor where lift is invariably not in operation! It is like a ghost office. No one comes and the standard answer by a lone peon is that they have all gone on inspection!
What improvement can take place with such apathy?
