DDA to Build Wall to Protect Delhi's Bhalswa Lake
The government is building a wall around Bhalswa Lake in Delhi.
This is to stop people from dumping trash and building on the land around the lake.
The lake is close to a garbage dump and farms, so it's at risk of getting dirty.
The government already started cleaning the area and planting trees to make it green.
DDA plans to construct a concrete wall around Bhalswa Lake.
The project aims to prevent encroachment and waste dumping.
A tender has been floated for soil testing and project report preparation.
The lake is vulnerable due to its location near a landfill and dairy colony.
The initiative follows previous efforts to reclaim the landfill and rejuvenate the lake.
