Urban sprawl claims Ghuma lake The Times of India
Till a couple of years ago, a small lake in Ghuma was a serene haven, alive with the sights and sounds of nature. Birds soared overhead while buffaloes grazed peacefully on the banks of the lake, which nurtured a vibrant ecosystem. Fast forward to today, and this once-thriving waterbody has fallen victim to the relentless urban sprawl of our rapidly expanding city. Prof Anil Gupta, a former professor at IIM Ahmedabad and founder of SRISTI and Honey Bee network, voiced his distress about the disappearing lake on X, formerly known as Twitter, highlighting the loss of this natural treasure amidst urban development.
