Thousands of dead fish floating on Hebbal lake here have triggered concern among the greens here amidst an apparent uncurbed sewage entry into the water body, polluting its ecosystem and killing the aquatic life.
Located in the Hebbal industrial area in the city, the lake, spread over 42 acres, is one of the major lakes of Mysuru city and was restored a few years ago with funding from the Infosys Foundation. The foundation had joined hands with the district administration for restoring the lake to its past glory.
The death of fish and other aquatic creatures has led the feeling among the locals on whether the lake was in good health. The dead fish were found at the lake near the Sewage Treatment Plant.
