This World Environment Day, we share with great humility work that has been ongoing over the past few years. The nudge to all our followers and well-wishers is to choose to be the change against the threats of pollution, biodiversity loss, climate change and plastic pollution. https://t.co/r01ztceVZZ

🌟Exciting News! 🌟
Thrilled to announce that we have been awarded the prestigious ICE ( Institute of Civil Engineers, United Kingdom) ChrisBinnie Award for Sustainable Water Management for the creation of the Hauz Khas Urban Wetlands
#SustainableWaterManagement#ICEawards
It is a privilege to create new public spaces, especially when they are wetlands that clean sewage and lakes
The first (and only) wetlands built by citizens in Delhi.
Check out the Hauz Khas Urban Wetlands on Google Maps by @IndiaEvolves@LtGovDelhi

@nirmalny@indiawater PUSA??? LOL!! Mr. Yadav Are you sure you're aware of what you are talking about or you are just trying to promote PUSA in a disconnected post?!
@LtGovDelhi when Hauz Khas lake was clean and nice due to wetlands built by citizens which removed nutrients. Then @official_dda paid contractor Kalpana Arora over 40 lakhs to add nitrogen fertilizer (nutrients) back to lake.
Talk about gross incompetence.
Turning dirty stinking sewage drains that have plagued the public for over a decade into lush thriving wetland ecosystems

We are glad that our #wetlands have withstood ignorant & unmindful actions of DDA steadfastly, kept cleaning the incoming #Sewage without a hitch & thankfully all the work didnt go to #waste - #lake hasnt gone back to it's previous condition of a stinking mess
#saveenvironment
@CeoNoida@noida_authority Nice of you to copy concept pioneered by @IndiaEvolves but unfortunately looks like you have hired @CSIR_NEERI who copied this concept from us. The designer from Neeri (Ankit Srivastava)has admitted that wetlands built by Neeri do not remove nutrients.
@WorldBank@WorldBankIndia please note DDA did not install any floating wetlands, this was our work and was a citizen imitative to clean the lake that DDA had failed to for a decade
@MartinRaiser who should we write to to get this corrected? @NIUA_India has given false credit for our work to @official_dda, an offense made doubly egregious by the fact the @official_dda destroyed our work
They also promoted #fakescience in the report "Building Flood Resilience
@LtGovDelhi Hitesh Vaidja from @NIUA_India informed us that PC Rajeev Tiwari is taking credit for work done by citizens?
Not only did @official_dda not install any #floatingwetlands they actually removed the ones installed by citizens and destroyed wetlands built to clean lake
For 10 years the inlet (built by the DDA & Intach NGO) to Lake was a stinking mess that forced people to cover their noses as they passed.
Their answer? Waste 2 lakhs of public money every month for eternity dumping bacteria into the lake causing more algae blooms & more stink.
