- Опубликовано: 21 мар 2021
- 'Dead Lakes Alive' looks at "India’s Silicon Valley", where the taps are running dry. Bangalore's once-famous city lakes have become a dumping ground for toxic waste and clean drinking water is growing scarce for many of the city’s 12 million residents.
Anand Malligavad is an engineer-turned-water conservationist. He is on a herculean mission to clean up his city's lakes. But demanding supporters, angry locals and a derelict temple stand in his way.
Anand must convince everyone that he can transform the lakes for a future with clean drinking water.

He rejuvenated my village lake too. He is doing a great work👏👏
First five minutes gave me goosebumps,
But this man is real hero ❤️
You are the real heroes of india.
real hero but our India media will never show such kind work.
I like his anger for all the mismanagement and disgraceful sight of filth. We need more angry people like him.
this man is really helping his country. I wish him every success. what he has accomplished is truly remarkable 💪💪🙏
Going green is the only way to make Earth great again. MEGA!
The earth had 4.3 billion people in 1980 today it has 7.8 billion and ALWAYS GROWING . We have seen nothing yet.
We need more people like Anand in this country to encourage people of India to preserve the mother nature 🌷🌳🇮🇳🙏
If more people like this should be emerged then awareness should be emerged for this we need a competent media which we doesn't possess
You have 1B population, I'm sure you could have an army of Anands, but people are always passing the buck. Let someone else do it not me!
We need to restore the Mother Nature, we need to help her blossom so She can take care of ppl...
"when there is no life, there is no economy.." thanks al jazeera for the smart documentaries.
And, many are from Vikram Singh

Can't believe Jalzeera covered something nice from India. Bravo.
Anand is Building the Lake it Build the Area and Society we Live. ❤
Look at the happiness in his face …. 6 feet water…whaaat can I tellu!!!!
Namaskara Kananna🙏🙏
The people must MUST be stopped from throwing trash in the waterways. they must be taught the sacredness of the water and the environment. I feel there is a profound lack of education for the average indian. I wish they were all like this fantastic man. God bless him and may his work be repeated all throughout India.
My urge to all citizens of India, this is our responsibility towards our environment which we have to protect and save at any cost for our next generation. Otherwise, this poison will spread everywhere.
I don't know if this is only in India, here in my country too people throw everything in the water, rivers are drying and dirty
Are you expecting the government to clean it up? Who is responsible for killing the rivers? Form an organization of like-minded people and march in the streets, have meetings to clean it up, DO SOMETHING.
@@CrakenFlux no I expect people don't throw their garbage in the water .especially plastic
What country do you live in?
Which country?
Govt need to bring a policy for industries to set up sewage treatment plant...also need to invest heavily to revival all polluted rivers....nature doesnt need us....we need nature...already many states are running out of groundwater .its a serious issue..
Human waste needs to be sorted out too. It doesn't need new laws bathrooms have to be provided for poor people it's no good having laws if they have no other place to go or throw it. Factory waste Human waste and dead bodies waste after a pyre they are tipped into the river to deal with I don't know if its some religious thing but it has to be made illegal with very strong punishment those 3 sorted and the river could stand a good chance eventually fish will return. Can you imagine the feeling when the first thing alive is once again in a very dead river
What an inspiration! The effort that goes in this is just unbelievable and I can clearly understand the enthusiasm and motivation that keeps fueling him to continue this. Just look at the result of each project! Just WOW!
Hats off ... Your one of my idol, im a pilipino.. God bless you , may you continue to protect mother nature..
We need people like you sir
The world needs you
India salutes you Anand bhai
You're a fighter, a brave man. Respect for you.
Planet needs more people like you who can dedicate time n effort for the environment
Hearty congratulations.Mr.Anand.Proud of you. you should go a long way in your passion.
Good job my brother god bless you 🙏
I wonder what If their was a mosque in illigal property !!!
My huge respect to this Samaritan Anand I hope to meet him soon in Bangalore and work alongside with him for the betterment of the people and our planet !
Thank you from a grateful nation. It is men like you that make this country great. We salute you and the dedicated hard work that you and your team have put in.
This is
real environmentalism, not the type promoted in the West all taxes and big govenrment agencies and BS groups sponsered by corporatations. This guy is a true patriot for India.
Being a citizen of Bangalore want to contribute towards your cause. Please let us know how we can contribute.
Amazing work you have done sir
God bless you
We need people like you in india. you will save it
this vedio caught my attention ......and here i am after going through the whole documentary ...astounded by the determination of a man to bring back life to polluted lakes
Man you deserve all the respect.. appreate you
Awesome sir, I really wanted to salute you.. pakka local Bashe Nam thara😁❤️👍🙏
I salute you Mr. Anand for your enthusiasm, hardwork, patience and positivity. God bless you
YOU SHOULD BE HRD MINISTER OF INDIA 😭💞
Lol we BJP will get rid of him
@@modified9173more like that the congresses job😂
Just Amazing, much needed work..👏
A salute to you sir Anand for good Nature's work👍👍👍💪💪💪📡📡📡
I salute you for all your hard work and determination for a noble cause!
Why this man hasn't won his Nobel Prize - is beyond me! Thank you!
Very inspiring and sustainable intiative to cater the present and future challenges regarding water❤
One should stand for this change. Anand anna is an aspiration for many to take these initiatives. Great work anna👏🫡
I really admire your work , you are really doing a great job for increase water table of our great nation through catch the rain , but when u ordered the people to demolish the temple , i felt hurt . but i also know that your intention was not bad so its ok , congratulations and best wishes for your job and your health also .
A temple is a man made construction... water is a most improbable substance without which were the planet covered with temples, all life would cease. Water is a temple, trees and soil and animals are the real temples. Praise God thru respect and admiration and love for His creation.
God bless this man! I wish him nothing but the best on his endeavors
MAN WITH A GREAT VISION 💞💞
In india...our mainstream media have no time for this gem 💎...they are busy in political gossips......thanks buddy for recognize this great guy😊
The way Nature Reacted To Their Honest Efforts by giving rain is just Astonishing 👍
This is the dilemma which we are facing. On one side we want heavy industrialization so that we get jobs and our economy booms. And on the other side we don't want to pollute our natural resources. We should find a solution between them.
Even without industrialization , just having 1.4 billion is going to wreck a environment no matter what.
Since only 2000 India population grew by 330 million , that's the entire population of 2021 America.
The US would be a polluted mess also with 1.4 billion people.
@@Crashed131963 true but USA and Europe are also densely populated and they are much cleaner.
@@computerscience2589 The also have a garbage collection system that ends up in a buried landfill.
Nobody in plain view would throw garbage on a street or in a river or lake.
have less children, reduce the numbers of people, the carrying power of the earth is finite, and the population keeps on increasing and consuming more goods, the population must be reduced and the factories must be monitored for adequate disposal of their waste, with LARGE FINES for non-compliance, .... the civil servants involved in monitoring this must themselves be monitored so there are no bribes or "arrangements", with jail punishment for those who would sell the health of mother earth to enrich themselves.
Every Indian should follow you .thanks
Lovely rowdy Lake man!! Don't mess and get in line for betterment of Society and Environment. 😮👍👏✊️🙏💪
Huge migration makes most beautiful city of India like this..before 10 years bangalore was full of green,lakes,garden city of India..
Migration ?
It's population growth.
Since 2000 India population grew by 330 million , that's the entire population of 2021 America.
The US would be a polluted mess also with 1.4 billion people.
@@Crashed131963so your telling me that China is also a polluted mess?
This whole Silicon Valley title to Bangalore should taken away as the companies which make up this title do not do anything for the city. Never do we see any company or employee in any prtoest or any development of the city except silly things like 'beautyfying' places !!!
One day would like to meet him and work with him in rejuvenating atleast one lake.keep doing the good work.
Can one man change the world 🤗🤗🌿🌿🌾🌾🌴🌴🌳🌳🌼🌼🌷🌷🥀🥀☘☘
Great work. God bless you.🙏🙏
Brilliant job...... Lakes have to be conserved to keep any place alive. Bangalore or any city will not survive without lakes.
To remove contqminations
We have to add starch in lakes
i.e .. Corn flour powder
So it may reduce soap oil effects ..
And corn flour will obsorb oil from water ..
We have to move the lake water to rivers
For that connect all lake from
Upper land to lower land ..and let it to move ..
So all lake will become pure and safe ..
We have to use under ground pipelines to connect each other.
Sewage water also to be moved through those lines ..
So automatically it will get cleaned ..
And growing herbs near lake will save people
You are a great man, Sir. God bless you!
bom trabalho amigos parabens
You are doing great job anand Sir.
Beautiful work
Problem is that indian school system is wrong . They never teach students such sensitive matters.
Reminds me of the survival builders, but on steroids, great stuff!
I like that you say you are not doing anything wrong by demolishing the temple but you prayed to God anyway just to make sure
Doing great work. ALl the best to him
A greater revolutionists he is❤❤❤❤❤
I 🫡 salute you, sir
What a Devine work 👏
Wow speechless
Great work sir 🙏
He is having big patience for the result to come....lake Man
Lack of empathy on environment. Population and pollution are beyond the pale.

Is the Indian government involved in these projects? They should be.
The govt officials should assist him.

Who is watching in 2024 in actual Bengaluru Water Crisis ?
Awesome 👌,

Alike... Mission kakatiya a programme which was started in TELANGANA in 2014 for restoration and rejuvenating of lakes and tanks ...this programme appreciated by many influentional personalities from other states of country.....WATERMAN of INDIA rajendra singh also toured in telangana to appreciate the works of state govt
Govt should support him. Give 1 billion to him.

Great Sir❤
Great human ❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏
Heartbreaking 💔
What heartbreaking.
The polluted lakes and rivers obviously
Wonderfull mission
Great ❤❤❤👏👏
Sad. Ray of hope in dark hours.
India was such an amazing place. Its jungles were famous worldwide. Now nothing remains.
1.4 billion people tends to be hard on the environment.
If India lost 1 billion people it would still have a larger population than the US and it's a larger land mass.
@@Crashed131963 India have population density same as Japan .
It's actually miss management and chaotic attitude of people which has lead to this situation.
@@fffff8930 Japan is not and never will be water scarce country.. our geography is messed up
@@badkarma1425 Japanese are disciplined and love their culture and land.
We Indians should learn from them and try to become better each day.
@@fffff8930 there is difference in India and Japan, we will take at least 2 more decades to reach their consciousness level as society. They love their culture but they have stopped medieval practices unlike us, have adopted modernity as new reality and industrialised. Indians r yet to reach uniform high level of education.
