Q:I have been advised against moving into Kavuri Hills because of a foul smell coming from a lake nearby. Are there clogged drains or something in this locality? Are there any other civic issues Kavuri Hills faces?
Latest Answer: It is true that the Durgam Cheruvu serves as a dumping ground for Kavuri hills and other neighbouring localities, as well as for the indistrial areas located nearby, and this has led to the emission of a foul stink as well as an increase in the number of mosquitoes in the area. The local residents have complained to the civic authorities about this matter. The Hyderabad Metropolitan Water Supply and Sewage Board (HMWS&SB) has been appointed to oversee the cleaning up of this lake, including rennovation of existing pipelines and creation of more underground drains. Upon completion of this project, the sewage problem in this locality should decrease.
