Polluted lake in Chennai turned into a fishery
Local fisheries in Chennai have restored the Chetpet lake in the state that faced shrinkage and a threat of encroachment due to chemical deposition, silt beds, and untreated sewage discharge. Through a community effort, the fisheries cleaned the lake, brought in a variety of fishes, and turned it into an 11-acre recreational spot with boating facilities and an eco park.
