LAKE DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY LDA AND BENGALURU(BANGALORE)

 The city of Bangalore is a marvellous city in many ways chisseled and christened by centuries of occupants both domestic and International and every community for that matter has left an indelible stamp on the city in its own way and right..

Very crisply said the city of Bangalore has many decorations handed down by the past both pristine and modern.The greatness of this city are its lakes -myraid of them in every nook and corner.Added to these lakes are three formal rivers which are in turn connected to these lakes.The water in these lakes are largely gifted by the Eastern Ghat mountain range which are short in height and barren and large supplies of water descending from these mountains traverse in many ways accross the Bsangalore plains to join the Cauvery river in some form down the plains.The lakes are largely plush with water from the Eastern Ghats and also from the rains.

When I was a kid there were two major lakes near our house which are oliterated now.In 2002 I had sent an email to the then Chief Minister of Karnataka Shri. S M Krishna the need to save these lakes and hence came the LDA (Lake Development Authority) which over the decades hence has done a splendid job preserving and developing these lakes.

Recently I visited the Nayandahalli lake and was wonderstuck at the wonderful flora that has been created around it and also two fountains in the middle with coloured light.Such fountains could be placed in all the lakes to add to the aura of the city.The same model could be followed across the country by district administrators to preserve the water bodies and add fountains in the middle with coloured light which glorifies the town in many ways.
