"The peripheral ring road to be built around the lake "
"The Karnataka High Court on Thursday allowed Nandi Infrastructure Corridor Enterprises (NICE) to build a peripheral road, which is part of the Bangalore-Mysore Infrastructure Corridor project, around Gottigere lake, off Bannerghatta Road, in Bangalore. "
Looking forward to more twists and turns in this never ending saga.

SB..but it hardly has water..you will hit the lake on your left off bannerghatta road..one needs to pass on the bund for about a km while coming from EC towards Banngerghatta rd
..amidst all this high drama of court cases if either the govt bodies or ESG type orgs had concentrated on rejuvinating the lake it would have been lot better..!
There are so many private farms and other buildings all around the lake..makes me wonder how the catchment system works for this lake!
It has been a pure political fight around this and now Kheny wants to fight DG in the elections..to teach a lesson he says!

Where exactly are these plots? And you didn't get any notice before they demolished and acquired? They would hand you some companesation, has that been done - or even that has not happened?
Nice has acquired the plot and demolished our compound wall

Just near to the gottigere lake, there were few plots owned by some NRI's. NICE without giving any intimation has acquired the land and demolished the compound wall and shed.
We have paid tax and have all relevant documents to prove. Its shame that we have no control on our own land which we purchased with our hard earned money.

Whenever I am in this area, I always try to find this exact lake? Where is it? Does it still have any water, or dry? Visible from Banerghatta road? Or is the lake inside the nice looking farm house where the NICE Road (from Kanapura Road side) ends?
