Taking to the social media, an NGO Future Foundations Society said, "the Lake is vanished due to encroachments. I used to visit the lake in front of Lodha to watch birds but after six months, I see it's gone and encroached. The work happens only in nights as officials turned blind eye, please take action," tweeted Sachin of Future Foundations Society by tagging minister KTR, Telangana Governor, Hyderabad and Ranga Reddy district collectors.

Responding to the tweet, KTR tweeted, "If this is true, I assure you that stringent action will be taken on those who are responsible." The minister directed Ranga Reddy District Collector and Kukatpally Zonal Commissioner to inspect and submit a report to the government.

Replying to the tweet GHMC Kukatpally zonal commissioner said, "the land pertains to the Telangana State Housing Board and the water body shown in the image is not a lake. It was dug for a construction project and later it was leveled to prevent accidents and water stagnation."
