Yediyur Lake
This is a well
maintained lake and cleaned every year at
least for ‘ganapathi’ festival. There is a separate tank created to
submerge
the idols. There
is a small garden adjacent to the lake and people daily go for
a walk in the morning and evening – surrounding the lake. Overall can be
considered as a ‘city’ lake.

Chunchgatta Lake
This
is how in general all Blore lakes are. Of course I am not talking about
lalbagh, sanky tank and a few exceptions. Go to that place and see how
unclean
a lake can be kept by the govt. The people leaving by the sides of lake
are dumping the
waste plastic bottles, cloths, tyres there only. On
the other side of the lake the big builders
are building the lakeview apartments and earning huge money, but aren’t
even
bothered to keep the lake clean. May be that side is made clean but not
this
side. Also its having lot
of water and
can be turned into
one wonderful place.

Doddakalsandra Lake
This was like a total
surprise to me. After looking into
google maps I went to see this lake. I did not find ny entrance to this
lake. The
entrance is in between the kumarans school building and the parking lot
and
will definitely go unnoticed as it looks like to garbage dumping yard.
Fortunately
as its not accessible easily to the people, when I went inside to my
surprise it’s
the best lake so far that I have seen and written in my blogs.
Absolutely clean
water, no plastic and really nice and with some nice birds, ducks – its
amazing
to see such a place. The only thing is the school should keep the
entrance clean
and also can keep the footpath surrounding the lake clean. I am confused
whether it should be made easily accessible to ‘US’ the destroyers of
lakes or
its better that the entrance is unclean so that the lake can be clean.
