BENGALURU: Reiterating that the city is becoming an urban jungle, experts on Saturday estimated that nearly 95% of the city will be just concrete if the unchecked urbanisation was allowed to continue. Experts debated a host of issues, ranging from depleting green cover and poor solid waste management to inability of the Real Estate Regulatory Authority (RERA) Act in solving problems.

At least 500 people representing various residents' welfare associations took part in the event that saw experts dissect issues plaguing the city. "The lakes in Bengaluru are dying due to mushrooming of apartments. The builders and the government have encroached all small lakes in the city," said TV Ramachandra, Centre for Ecological Sciences, Indian Institute of Science.

V Ramprasad, co-founder of Friends of Lakes, a city-based environmentalist group, said lakes have become garbage dumps as the BBMP has a poor collection system. "The Swachh Survekshan for the current year has begun, but the BBMP's ignorance towards it is frightening. The BBMP uses the lack of collectors and dysfunctional auto tippers as shield to cover its flawed management," he said.
