Axing of All 6k trees to lake revival Compared

BENGALURU: NGO Friday For Future (FFF), endorsed by surroundings activist Greta Thunberg, has established an internet campaign against the proposed axing of all 6,316 trees to Hebbal-Nagawara Valley Project from the state forest department.
The request received over 7,000 answers as of Monday.
The FFF has required extension of this deadline for filing the objections because of the pandemic scenario and to consult with experts to guarantee lake rejuvenation doesn’t occur in the price of ecology.
The job matches 65 tanks at Bengaluru Urban, Bengaluru Rural and Chikkaballapura districts.
Even though the forest division has stated objections must reach it until June 24, activists have required it reevaluate the choice.
The forest department has hunted public inspection to axe trees in Singayakanahalli lake because of its revival.
While town activists have expressed their ire against manipulating the biodiversity of the region, concerns are raised at federal level also.
Actor Ramya Divya Spandana has extended her aid against the transfer.
From the effort correspondence, the activists said:”It’s home to peacocks belonging to program 1 under the Wildlife Protection Act (1972), aside from a wealthy biodiversity containing foxes, snakes, insects and birds.
Lake pros are of the view that rejuvenation could occur without cutting out such a enormous number of trees.
Time is required for such programs to be exhibited.” City-based NGO Namma Bengaluru Foundation explained it visited the place and seen peacocks, bird planters, snake pits, moths, butterflies and several more.
It’s a grazing ground for almost a thousand cows.
There are trees that are over 30-40 years of age and lately the woods department also had taken interest in this property and implanted Pongam saplings, it pointed out.
“We encourage that the lake revival but maybe not in the destruction of their ecology and habitat.
The aforementioned findings have never been recorded in the files that are shared from the general public domain and it’s a short-sighted approach to the whole project together with all the haste to reduce 6,316 trees.
The trees are shielding the catchment area that has been occupying the groundwater for many years.
This ecosystem has encouraged the neighboring villages for several decades,” said Vinod Jacob, managing director of Namma Bengaluru Foundation.
