Mysore/Mysuru: A delegation of over 40 green activists visited the Vijayanagar First Stage this morning to assess the eco damage due to cutting of 20 fully grown shade trees. They later visited the Forest Department office at Ashokapuram to meet Deputy Conservator of Forests (DCF) Kamala Karikalan.
As the DCF is indisposed, a memorandum was submitted to Assistant Conservator of Forests (ACF) Rangaswamy where the activists have alleged that many more trees are destined to be cut in the area. They questioned the ACF as to who gave the permission to cut the trees and the permission copy did not have any signature.
