Reshipora is a small village located in the outskirts of Budgam town. The District Administration of Budgam around the end of April told them that the Government had plans to set up a makeshift COVID 19 hospital in Kashmir and for that administration has suggested to utilize public land (Kah Charai , shamilat) of Reshipora. The local residents didn’t utter a word and gave their consent. The 74 kanals of land had thousands of willow , poplar and other varieties of lush green trees. The villagers were made to sacrifice these green trees with this hope that they would get an alternate benefit . That never happened. The villagers got only an environmental disaster and no returns at all.
