HYDRAA to create mini pond for Ganesh Idol immersion in Kukatpally

The Hyderabad Disaster Response and Assets Protection Agency (HYDRAA) on Wednesday, August 5, announced it will create a mini pond in Kukatpally for Ganesh idol immersion.

The decision was announced by the HYDRAA Commissioner, AV Ranganath, during a review of restoration works at the IDL lake in Madhapur. He was accompanied by local MLAs, Madhavaram Krishna Rao and Arikepudi Gandhi. The Commissioner stated that nearly three metres



of silt would be removed from the lake to enhance its water storage capacity.

MLA Madhavram Krishna Rao urged that adequate arrangements be made for idol immersion following Ganesh Chaturthi.

Ranganath assured that temporary immersion facilities would be provided this year and that the lake would be fully developed by next year with permanent infrastructure to accommodate the increasing number of Ganesh idols.
