RTI to save bellandur lake

Abhijit82 - 1-MAY-2013

HI All,

Everyday I travel via the road next to bellandur lake to OOR. The speed at which the dumping trucks are covering up the lake is scary. I am planning to file a RTI seeking more information about this issue. As I am filing an RTI for the first time, would welcome any help in helping me format the right queries for the RTI.

Regards,

Abhijit Das
