Residents of Sri Sarvamangala Nagar, Chitlapakkam, and representatives of various organisations took part in an awareness walk on Saturday to conserve Sembakkam lake.
M. Ravi, secretary of the Sri Sarvamangala Nagar Residents Welfare Association, said nearly 100 participants walked 4 km to highlight the need to accelerate improvement work in the lakes.
Though a ₹25-crore project is being executed, no proper inlet channel has been formed to bring rainwater from catchment areas. A proper link has to be collected to transfer surplus water from Chitlapakkam to Sembakkam lake, he said.
