Facelift for lakes - just new fences or more?

Back in January, BBMP had announced that it planned facelift for 17 lakes in and around the city. Cant find any newspaper articles to quote from, but this blog has it (17 lakes ...). BBMP had said they would get Detailed Project Report prepared, and hand those to LDA. Now, recently, I noticed tenders on BBMP website that plan to put chain link fencing on these 17 lakes ex: 1, 2, 3). So I was wondering if this chain link fencing is the facelift they announced? If not, then isn't chain link fencing a waste of money, wouldn't the fences be just broken and run down in a few months. At about 20-30 lakhs per lake, this is about 2 crore worth of work in all. Guys with 'contacts', any idea? Or updates on BBMP's lake fecelift project?
