What are the possibilities of Mangaluru is also losing its lakes like the monstrous city 1. Is there any concrete plan to save us from this probable disaster? Are digitized & published records of all water bodies (lakes, rivers, streams, rajakaluves) along with their boundaries available? Note that New Delhi had sank due to depletion of ground water 1 2. And also fresh water flowing from inland aquifers toward the coast creates a natural hydraulic barrier preventing saline water from sea entering land 1 2.

This move of the state government seems to be more for suppressing growth of DK by looting away its resources rather than for anything useful. Abundant water is there in Tulunadu, deep tech companies & international institutes may soon start moving to Silicon Beach ditching the monstrous region once they become aware of this. The only way sadistic real estate cum political mafia of the monstrous city can stop this is by plundering or ruining Tulunadu.

Western Ghats biodiversity meet raises demands on river conservatio

Mangaluru: A major biodiversity conservation conference held on the banks of the Kumaradhara River at Urumbi in Kadaba taluk of Dakshina Kannada district recently has put forth a series of strong demands aimed at protecting river ecosystems and halting environmentally damaging projects across the Western Ghats.

Organised jointly by the Kumaradhara Environment Protection Committee, Save Western Ghats Movement and Vruksha Laksha Movement, the event brought together environmentalists, scientists, activists and local communities. The programme, which included river puja and aarati, turned into a celebratory gathering following the state govt's decision to drop proposed private hydropower projects on the Kumaradhara after sustained opposition for over 14 years.
