The state government has appointed a three-member committee to probe the “illegal” road construction over the Hosakerehalli lake that began in March this year.
The committee, which met for the first time last week following an order from the Urban Development Department (UDD), is expected to submit its report in a month’s time.
The panel comprises KG Mahesh, director, Karnataka Engineering Research Station, Mandya; KM Shivaprakash, superintendent engineer, Visvesvaraya Jala Nigam Ltd; and TR Shivaram, chief engineer (Rtd), Public Works Department. The members kicked off their probe, by meeting the BBMP’s chief engineers in the Vidhana Soudha.
