Citizens have ten days to file objections
The proposed Namma Metro link to Kempegowda International Airport will be built at a huge environmental cost and loss of Bengaluru’s green cover. Of the estimated 4,400 trees that will ultimately have to make way for the 58 km line, the tree officer has issued public notices for the removal of 2,340 trees on two stretches. As per the notices seeking objections from the public issued by the Deputy Conservator of Forest, who is also the tree officer, 1,507 trees have been identified for removal on one stretch, and the remaining 833 on another stretch.More Related News
