The heritage city Patiala with immense historical importance is all set to witness the revival of Rajindra and Sheesh Mahal lakes. Residents of Patiala will soon be able to enjoy the pristine glory of these two lakes which are being brought back to life with the most diligent efforts of Chief Minister, Captain Amarinder Singh and MP Preneet Kaur.

The Deputy Commissioner Kumar Amit informed that the Chief Minister has expressed his desire to give a completely ancient / heritage look to both the lakes under Mission Tandrust Punjab.
