Mysuru, Apr. 7 (RK&BCT)- The Mysuru Urban Development Authority (MUDA) has begun the work of ‘jungle clearance’ at the 20-acre and 20-gunta land in Hanchya-Sathagalli that has been earmarked to be handed over to the Karnataka State Cricket Association (KSCA) to construct a state-of-the-art International Cricket Stadium.
However, the ‘jungle clearance’ work has not gone down well with environment activists who have alleged that many fully grown trees have been uprooted with the help of earth-movers. A group of green activists visited the land yesterday following complaints from the residents that many trees are being axed. MUDA has denied this charge.
