Sir,
Apropos “Impact of Government Order permitting land conversion in Kodagu” (SOM dated 14.2.2020), let me share my own first-hand experience. I have visited cities like Shimla, Kulu, Manali etc., rivers and valleys like Parvathi, Kulu and different lakes of Himachal Pradesh from time to time, noticing the painful changes towards the worst side by indiscriminate human activity, by drastic deforestation, roads and resorts turning the green environment into concrete jungles.
