The walls will help prevent the silting up of the lake, which is the second largest brackish water lake in India, and help save it and the rich biodiversity.
The proposal was developed based on a study by the Department of Ocean Engineering of IIT Madras.
The heavy siltation is a cause for worry. If the mouth closes, the growth of sea food and fauna will get reduced drastically.
