Residents want cleaning of stormwater drain (Rajakaluve)

 40 residents from 10 apartments in Yelahanka, North Bengaluru called on Panchayat Development Office Singanayakkanhalli and met Muni Reddy, President of the Panchayat. Talking on behalf of Green Circle who organized the delegation, V Selvarajan, Green Circle highlighted the pathetic condition of the Rajakaluve (Storm Water Drains) and requested immediate intervention. He added that the Avalahalli lake in Yelahanka is in bad condition since the rajakaluves entering the lake at south and west banks are completely clogged and there is no scope of water flow into the lake. He also highlighted that the outlet drain has also been reduced to a small canal and completely cluttered with plastic. If these Inlets and outlet are not cleaned, the flow of water will be affected. S L Patil added that the situation might end in flooding and waterlogging which will affect the nearby societies. Members also highlighted other issues such as unauthorized fishing and misuse of the walking track around the park for driving two-wheeler and other unlawful activities during night time. Other members also took up the garbage dumping in public places and encroachment in platforms.  Muni Reddy promised to take up the issues and also advised the members to discuss the issues with the local MLA Vishwanath. A letter addressed to Panchayat Development Officer Damodhar was handed over to him, as he was not available. The members belonging to Prestige Royale gardens, Vajram Tiara, Ramky One North, M S Ramaiah North County, Sriram, Suhana, Zed woods, Pyramid Carnation, Zed Collective, Zed Earth Peoples trust and Green Circle were part of the delegation. It was decided to take up the matter with Vishwanath, MLA in next round of talks
