Aim is to prevent new structures in FTL, not razing the existing ones: HYDRAA chief
HYDERABAD: The primary objective of Hyderabad Disaster Response and Asset Protection Agency is not to preserve the tanks by demolishing all the existing structures in the Full Tank Level area but to prevent the new structures from emerging, said Commissioner AV Ranganath on Friday. He chaired a brainstorming session titled “Rejuvenation of Urban Lakes & Nalas Fixing of the FTL boundaries” organised by the agency at its office where the discussion pertained to conservation, restoration, FTL determination and flood water canal conservation in Telangana. The HYDRAA chief noted that the agency will be using cutting-edge technology to control illegal structures and will receive an alert if any illegal structure is built in the lake bed region. Regarding the revival of Bathukamma Kunta lake in Amberpet, Ranganath stated that the agency will be filing a counter-petition to get the court order vacated while noting that the aim is to prevent new structures from emerging.
