In view of the upcoming Ganesh festival, the Mayor along with the zonal commissioner and respective corporators, assessed the preparations and improvement efforts at multiple lakes and baby ponds in Kukatpally zone on Friday.

The Mayor thoroughly examined lakes and pond areas including Hasmathpet Lake, Pragathi Nagar Lake, IDL Lake, Vennela Gadda Ponds, among others located in Kukatpally Zone. During the inspection, the mayor provided recommendations to the officials for the immersion process in the festival.

Vijayalakshmi emphasised the need for timely completion of all arrangements to ensure seamless provision of facilities to the devotees. Additionally, she recommended that security measures be implemented to enhance safety and prevent untoward incidents at lakes and baby ponds doing the immersion. She also said to make suitable arrangements for vehicle parking and barricades should be set up around the lakes and baby ponds.
