A dried-up pond on the outskirts of Bengaluru has been given a second chance at life, thanks to the efforts of one determined environmentalist and a dedicated team of volunteers.
What looked like a neglected patch of land covered in silt, waste and encroachments is now a functioning water body once again. The transformation of Bikkanahalli Kunte has drawn attention not only because of the speed of the restoration work but also because of the impact it is already having on the local ecosystem.
