Bhalu Mondhe Sir Kiran TV Serial

Sirpur Lake is on the outskirts of Indore. It is about a 100 years old and was created by the Holkars who ruled the erstwhile Indore state. It covers an area of roughly 1 square kilometer and is a rain fed lake. The villages of Rangwasa and Ahirkhedi are near this lake. The Holkars had transferred around 550 acres of the submergence area of the lake to the government of that era.




The Nature Volunteers of Indore is a small group of volunteers who are trying to save Sirpur Lake which attracts migratory birds from as far as Europe. Among the foremost in this group are Bhalu Mondhe the famous photographer and sculptor from Indore and journalist Abhilash Khandekar among others. They, along with Dilip Phadke, Sudhir Sone and Salil Tambe founded The Nature Volunteers in 1994. The condition of this lake has deteriorated over the years and this has caused much concern among nature lovers in and around Indore.


According to a booklet brought out by TNV the Bombay Natural History Society had conducted a survey in 1996 at the behest of TNV and it was discovered that over 110 species of local and migrant bird species were present in this area.
