Say residents, activists as they stage protest near
Turahalli forest
The decision of the State government to convert the Turahalli forest area into a tree park sparked large scale protests by residents and activists on Tuesday and Wednesday. On Saturday, Chief Minister
BS Yediyurappa had announced that portions of Turahalli forest, Machohalli and the
Kadugodi plantation will be converted to tree parks and made accessible to the public. Turahalli forest is situated 20 km away from the city, off Kanakapura Road.
“The tree park will lead to a lot of construction activities. Once they are opened to the public, forest officials have to provide concrete benches for the visitors, toilets and canteen facilities. The tree park needs security guards and it will lead to the construction of quarters to accommodate them,’’ said K Arun Kumar, a resident of Brigade Omega.
