Mysore/Mysuru: While Government Departments are tasked to spread the message of conservation and protection of trees and environment, over 10 trees have been allegedly axed at the premises of the official residence of the Central Sericultural Research & Training Institute (CSRTI) Director on JLB Road in city.
In April this year, 40 fully grown shade-giving trees were felled overnight by the MCC on Hyder Ali Road between Venkatalingaiah Circle (SP Office Circle) and the Kalikamba Temple for road widening works resulting in hundreds of concerned Mysureans staging protest, candle light vigil to mourn the death of the trees and now, CSRTI, a Central Government undertaking, has felled over 10 trees.
