Speaking at the closing ceremony of the 37th Hyderabad Sailing Week, Soundararajan emphasized the significance of the lake as a natural resource and urged both the government and the public to take collective responsibility in the efforts to clean the lake.
Soundararajan, referring to the lake as the "Mother Lake," highlighted its role in nurturing and supporting sailors who have excelled in national and international competitions.
