Update 31-May-2011
Over the past couple of months, we have had intermittent rains, just enough to nourish the greenery (weeds included) in the lake bund and on the lake bed. The last weekend 27-29 May was spent in clearing the unwanted plants from the lake bund, and where possible, the shallow parts of the lake bed. It took an army of tough guys to do this and it's done now.

With the rains, the walking track has sunk in places. This is being repaired by the BBMP contractor.
Painting of the railings and sidewalk is in progress. It's going to be all green and yellow.
