A day after it was accused of dumping hundreds of truckloads of mud in the middle of Hosakerehalli lake, the BBMP publicly denied building a road through the waterbody.
Evidence on the ground, however, suggests that the civic body is lying through its teeth.
On Tuesday, the BBMP put up a poster at the site claiming that it is only creating temporary mounds of mud for removing debris and silt from the lake located in southwestern Bengaluru.
“From Hosakerehalli lake, no permanent road will be constructed inside the lake. Only temporary mounds of mud are being prepared for the movement of tippers and machinery for removing debris and silt.
