The area around the Subhas Sarovar in ward number 33 of the Kolkata Municipal Corporation (KMC) has always been a picture of neglect.
The area, which used to boast of a swimming pool, a football ground and a fishing club, now lies in shambles. Environmentalists feel that the downslide began a few years ago, when the Kolkata Improvement Trust (KIT) decided to cement the banks of the lake.
With the area in ruins, both KMC and the KIT are blaming each other for the mess.
