Protect the Villivakkam Reservoir for its Ecological benefits!

Thanks to the recent rains the Villivakkam Reservoir is  brimming to its full capacity. The recent heavy rains have increased the water levels in many water bodies. Villivakkam reservoir, located in Ayanavaram Railway Colony was created in 1930. The reservoir has recharging wells.

The lake served as a breeding habitat of various birds. The water is now matted with hyacinth in many parts and presents a picture of neglect. The metal ramp, which provides a panoramic view needs renovation. 

The residents want the Villivakkam Reservoir  to be protected and preserved for its ecological benefits to the locality and are planning to make their representations to the new mayor in this regard.
