This Is What Chennai’s Chembarambakkam Lake Looks like Now
This is the Chembarambakkam lake, which was once a major water source for Chennai city but has now completely dried up. Madras High Court has blamed the government for passively waiting for monsoon rather than taking proactive measures to solve the crisis.
Facts suggest that this crisis has not occurred in a day. This is a result of years of negligence by various administrations. Right now, Chennai is depending on two desalination plants. Chennai metro water is also bringing water from abandoned quarries and some from agricultural wells. Efforts are on to bring water from other districts like Vellore.

Chembarambakkam Lake chennai, tamilnadu
Chembarambakkam lake, is a lake located near Chennai in Kanchipuram district of Tamil Nadu, India, about 40 km from Chennai. It is one of the two rain-fed reservoirs from where water is drawn for supply to Chennai City, the other one being the Puzhal Lake. The Adyar River originates from this lake. A part of water supply of the metropolis of Chennai is drawn from this lake. Chembarambakkam was known as Puliyur Kottam. It is one of the 24 kottams (villages) that existed even during the later Chola period in Thondai Mandalam which had Kanchipuram as its headquarters.

Chennai Floods Explained: Why Is Chennai Under Water?
The catastrophic flooding in Chennai is the result of the heaviest rain in several decades, which forced authorities to release a massive 30,000 cusecs from the Chembarambakkam reservoir into the Adyar river over two days, causing it to flood its banks and submerge neighbourhoods on both sides. It did not help that the Adyar’s stream is not very deep or wide, and its banks have been heavily encroached upon over the years.
Similar flooding triggers were in action at Poondi and Puzhal reservoirs, and the Cooum river that winds its way through the city.
While Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa said, during the earlier phase of heavy rain last month, that damage during the monsoon was “inevitable”, the fact remains that the mindless development of Chennai over the last two decades — the filling up of lowlands and choking of stormwater drains and other exits for water — has played a major part in the escalation of the crisis.

Chennai: Volunteers remove tonnes of dead fish from Tiruneermalai lake
After tonnes of dead fish carcasses floated at the Tiruneermalai lake for days, spreading a foul stench, locals volunteered to join hands and remove the fish kill in Chennai. Volunteers took matters into their own hands after government agencies responsible for the lake’s upkeep failed to clear the stinking trash. About 40 volunteers dug a 2-metre deep pit in the lake and buried the dead fish in it. Meanwhile, Fisheries department officials collected samples from the lake to ascertain the reason behind the fish kill.
