“That is the sewerage nala which used to be 20-feet wide but now it is reduced to 5-feet. The water from that nala has flooded the whole area. The last time this area was flooded, that nala was widened but it isn’t enough.

At least now we should clean up our act,” said Lubna Sarwath of Save Our Urban Lakes.
