The HYDRAA commissioner also inspected the Neknampur Lake where another realtor, Pooja Crafted Homes, dumped earth and debris inside the lake and also built sheds there. On his orders, the sheds and debris were removed.
He also reviewed Gollavari Kunta in Shamshabad municipality, where layouts were developed within the lake’s full-tank level (FTL) and buffer zone. He directed revenue and irrigation officials to promptly provide comprehensive details about the lake and the encroachments.
