Amrit Sarovar lies dry in Mudiya Jagroop village of Bhadpura, Bareilly.
Jagran correspondent, Bareilly. Most of the Amrit Sarovars in the district have been constructed by renovating old ponds or are being constructed. Of the 317 lakes, construction of more than 50 percent has not been completed. In the month of February itself, there is almost no water in many Amrit Sarovars and at some places there is very less water. In such a situation, not even a drop of water will remain in them in the extreme heat.
There is no water in the lakes but there is definitely dirt in them. Due to lack of cleaning of the lakes, huge grass and bushes have also grown. This is not being paid attention to by those responsible. There is no arrangement for water in these and only rain water is being awaited.
