The restoration of the Vellayani Lake, supported by the Adani Foundation, is progressing.
The foundation has been involved in the protection and renovation of the lake since 2020. A tailored strategy was put into practice during August and September 2023 to tend to the remaining sections along the lake’s periphery, a statement said.
One of Kerala’s three largest freshwater lakes, Vellayani Lake performs a number of functions, making it an essential component of the neighbourhood ecosystem. Recent years have seen a decline in its size due to a variety of human activities, such as waste disposal and using the lake for rice cultivation, the statement noted.
