Bengaluru Lakes Bill: Governor Returns Bill To Reduce Buffer Zones, Cites Ecological Impact

A major showdown is underway in Karnataka over a bill concerning Bengaluru's lakes. Governor Thaawarchand Gehlot has returned a bill proposed by the Siddaramaiah government that seeks to reduce the buffer zones around lakes, a move that would allow for construction activity closer to the water bodies. The Governor has pointed to the potential ecological and environmental impact, asking for an assessment before the bill is reconsidered. The BJP has opposed the legislation, alleging it is due to pressure from the "real estate mafia." An opposition speaker called the bill a "sure death knell for the lakes and tanks" and had requested it be referred to a joint select committee for thorough review. This development occurs against a backdrop of frequent flooding in Bengaluru, often attributed to the encroachment on lake beds over many years. #bengalurulakes #karnataka #savethelakes #itwebvideos #indiatoday #urbanplanning #environment #watercrisis #bengalurufloods #politics #governor #bjp #congress #lakeencroachment #siddaramaiah Subscribe to India Today for NEW VIDEOS EVERY DAY and make sure to enable Push Notifications so you'll never miss a new video.
