Most of the lakes that were in the city have already dried up, and now i think they have started this protection act, to stop the encroachment of the remaining lakes in the city.

there are 2,857 lakes within HMDA limits- 168 in GHMC limits and 2,689 in gram panchayats and municipalities outside Greater Hyderabad. The LPC’s main role is listing of lakes in HMDA area, FTL demarcation, protection of FTL area from encroachment and conducting awareness campaign for protection of the lakes.

FTL demarcation of the other lakes situated within the Outer Ring Road will be completed shortly. Similarly, the demarcation of FTL boundaries and preparation of lake maps for 2,402 lakes situated outside the ORR is going on and will take some more time to complete.

I have heard that the demarcation of Full Tank Levels boundaries has been completed in respect of 521 lakes in coordination with irrigation and revenue departments. I think that completes most of the lakes.
