Mysore Feb. 26. The conservation of lakes in Mysore has received a major boost with the district in-charge Minister, H.Vishwanath seeking Rs. 25 lakh from the Chief Minister, S.M.Krishna, for the purpose on a priority basis.

Mr. Vishwanath urged Mr. Krishna, to release the amount as the conservation of five lakes using ADB funds would be delayed.

He said the Kukkarahalli, the Devanoor, the Lingambudhi, the Karanjim and the Dalvai lakes were on the verge of extinction due to neglect.
