Bengaluru residents question ecological impact of Hebbal short tunnel project

A hydrologist from WELL Labs has flagged concerns over the Hebbal short tunnel project's use of 3.5 acres of Hebbal Lake, saying it warrants closer examination. The expert noted that Bengaluru's lakes operate as a cascading system, with water flowing sequentially from one lake to another.

Citizens continue to question both the project's logic and its ecological costs. The concerns centre on potential disruption to the interconnected lake network that sustains the city's water management.
