Plan to clear trees, medicinal plants from Ayurveda centre in Poojappura for new wings
Tree Walk, a citizens’ collective that aims at protecting greenery in the city, has asked the government to stay all development activities at the Poojappura Panchakarma Ayurveda Institute (PPI) till a ‘detailed assessment of the environmental and social impact of the socio-ecologically diverse green space’ is carried out. The move comes amidst attempts to re-start construction activities by clearing trees and medicinal plants from the botanical garden for a para-surgical wing and geriatric pay ward for the PPI.More Related News
