BENGALURU: An 80ft-wide road is being constructed adjacent to Pattandur Agrahara Lake in east Bengaluru, which citizens allege is coming up in the waterbody’s buffer zone and hence is illegal.
Several protests demanding that the construction be avoided or stopped have been held, but to no avail. The stretch is said to connect ITPB Main Road and Whitefield Main Road and is likely to reduce traffic on smaller lanes in the area.
