Litter tarnishes the beauty of Dhanmondi Lake

Dhanmondi Lake is one of only a handful of lakes in Dhaka city. The lake is surrounded by greenery and the area draws quite a crowd every day. Various measures have been taken to enhance the beauty of the lake. However, the lake and its surroundings are constantly polluted by garbage left behind by visitors and its surrounding restaurants. Despite the presence of regular trash bins in the park next to the lake, litter is still everywhere and the area is getting dirtier with each passing day.
