The bund road surrounding Perungudi lake in Chennai has become impassable due to the accumulation of waste and the presence of anti-social elements. This poses a risk to students attending a nearby government school. Despite complaints, no action has been taken to address the issue. The waste not only pollutes the lake but also increases the risk of diseases such as dengue. The lake has been identified as polluted and efforts to rehabilitate it have been delayed. Suggestions have been made to create a Miyawaki forest after cleaning up the garbage.
