Bellanwila lake and jogging track neglected
As one who does a walk daily in the evening, it is a pity to see the Bellanwila Lake and the jogging track once kept in good condition now stands neglected. Lotus creepers have invaded and spread covering most of the lake and the jogging track has pot-holes. Stray dogs are seen roaming where it was once out of bounds for them. Is it due to the reduction of staff or allocation of funds for maintenance? If those are the reasons, I am sure the users will voluntarily come forward to help by organising a Shramadana.
