A. BELOW EXTRACT FROM LOKAYUKTA ORDER DATED 19 APRIL 2021:
B. BELOW FEW PICS FROM SURVEY OF LAKE ALONG WITH OFFICIALS ON 15 APR 2021:
We fully trust in Lokayukta and all the officials that the Surram Cheruvu Bandlaguda and its hydrology viz., inflow, outflow channels and weir be restored as a common property. We hope our proposal of fencing the water bodies at their buffer zones makes sense to the multi-governance presiding over the lake.
Best,
Dr Lubna Sarwath
Petitioner at Lokayukta
