It was observed that the lake was clean. And the trees planted were being maintained and watered regularly. Most importantly, there was no seepage and as a result fish life has revived in the waters.

As part of the mprovement efforts, an area of 1,400 m was divided into zones and five community groups assigned to take over maintenance, a press note said.

There will be a monthly assessment by team of PWD, Municipality and Resident Welfare Association to adjudge the best maintained area, who will be recognised at the Raj Nivas.
