Lakes in Bangalore
http://dbpedia.org/resource/Lakes_in_Bangalore an entity of type: WikicatLakesOfBangalore
Lakes and tanks in Bangalore refer to reservoirs of varying sizes constructed over a number of centuries for rainwater harvesting. The three main gentle natural valley systems have allowed for the creation of interconnected lakes and wetlands where water flows downstream through a series of channels or drains. This entire network of waterbodies in the modern administrative regions of Greater Bangalore, and the two districts of Bangalore Urban and Rural (formerly the unified Bangalore district), have seen accelerated change caused by urbanisation in the past four decades.

Lakes and tanks in Bangalore refer to reservoirs of varying sizes constructed over a number of centuries for rainwater harvesting. The three main gentle natural valley systems have allowed for the creation of interconnected lakes and wetlands where water flows downstream through a series of channels or drains. This entire network of waterbodies in the modern administrative regions of Greater Bangalore, and the two districts of Bangalore Urban and Rural (formerly the unified Bangalore district), have seen accelerated change caused by urbanisation in the past four decades. Historically, the need for creating and sustaining these man-made dammed freshwater reservoirs was created by the absence of a major river nearby coupled with a growing settlement. A stage had been reached by the end of the 19th century when there was hardly any space for new lakes in the city. When technology facilitated water to be brought from further away the narrative and usage of the lakes changed. While the need for the lakes has gone down in terms of the water security of the city, the lakes and the interconnected drain network is considered important with respect to sewage and channeling excess rainwater. The lakes have been redefined as recreational spaces and a place where biodiversity needs to be protected from the effects of unplanned urbanization. Other lakes have reduced in size and are in various stages of deterioration. While associated pollution is rampant such as the case of Bellandur Lake which is used as a sewage tank and a lot is left wanting by locals, numerous public and private efforts have been undertaken to address the pollution such sewage treatment and prevention of dumping and encroachment.
