PLEASE MARK AS BRAINLIEST!
Historically Bellandur lake was part of a natural cycle. It used to have clean water during monsoon and became shallow or dry during summer. Now, the lake is filled with stinking water in all seasons, thanks to sewage that flows in everyday. The lake is covered with weeds and filled with silt. Water pollution has led to disappearance of fishes in the lake.
Most importantly, it has resulted in pollution of groundwater table in the surrounding areas. An independent study conducted by the Indian Institute of Science in 2013 revealed that borewell water in Varthur village (close to Bellandur) was high in nitrate, ammonium, and phosphorous.
Silver articles in the neighbouring houses turn black owing to the chemical nature of water, claim residents. People also complain of lung infection, skin allergy and frequent dengue cases reported in neighbourhood.
