Flood Risk Rises as Lakes Fill with Treated Water Ahead of Monsoon
Activists warn that filling city lakes to the brim with treated water has compromised their retention capacity. They say none of these lakes have sluice gates, leaving authorities with no way to regulate water levels as rainwater flows in.
Environmental activists have raised concerns about potential flooding as the monsoon season approaches. They warn that several city lakes, filled to capacity with treated wastewater, may not be able to manage incoming rainwater. These lakes reportedly lack adequate sluice gates or other mechanisms for water level regulation. This absence of control could lead to overflow and subsequent flooding in surrounding areas. Activists argue that the current water levels compromise the lakes' natural retention capacity. They are urging authorities to address these vulnerabilities before heavy rainfall begins.
Activists caution that lakes filled with treated water lack regulation mechanisms, posing a flood risk as the monsoon season begins.
