  1. I think we are really lucky that you've documented these water bodies...as you say, we'll never again get to see them....I wonder when our politicos will stop thinking about short-term gains, and develop long-term vision that is not human-centric.

  2. Yes, I don't think we will be able to see them as seen here. Mantapa is almost gone. Was passing by Jigani Lake . Good number birds now..but looks like some kind of work seem to be happening. When I asked a villager , I was told then they are planning some recreational facility there...:-(
