Iron Ore Mining: 1,000 acres of Forest to be cleared in Ballari

By Ashvini Ranjan The recent news about one thousand acres of virgin forest in Sandur, Ballari District, being opened up for mining Iron and Manganese Ore by Kudremukh Iron Ore Company Ltd. (KIOCL) is shocking to say the least.  In all, 99,330 trees are proposed to be felled much against the advice by the Forest Department. Besides the damage to the environment, the mining activity will seriously erode soil, affect water bodies and streams in the area.  The Deputy Conservator of Forests (DCF) has further warned the distress the mining activity could cause to the wildlife in the area, leading to even more ‘man-animal conflict.’ 

Heli Tourism: Abandon non-sustainable development plans

Sir, Being a citizen of Mysuru, I feel pained by the decision of authorities concerned to cut down precious trees to make way for new helipads near the iconic Lalitha Mahal Palace Hotel for the proposed Heli Tourism Project. During my childhood days, just 15-20 years ago, I remember the streets of Mysuru were shaded by large trees with ample foliage. As kids we always played around them for shade from the summer sun. Today travelling down the major roads of Mysuru during summer is such an unpleasant experience, primarily due to cutting down of these road side trees for developmental works.
