"The government is saying that they are doing this to make it easy for the farmers to cut the trees. But it is clear from the list of trees that it is done only for the timber lobby. The amendment clearly says, 'trees grown in his land' but who is growing trees like African Tulip in rural areas? These are mostly grown in urban areas,
"

Between 2008-09 and 2016-17 about 17,964 trees were cut for road widening, constructing flyovers and for other various projects. As per a BBMP forest department abstract, Namma Metro caused felling of 2840 trees, and different development projects led to the felling of 15,124 trees.

According to the proposal introduced in the state legislature earlier this month, BBMP or any other governmental agency, will not require the permission of the Forest Department to chop off these trees.

Opposition has been growing against the Karnataka government's proposal to amend the Karnataka Tree Preservation Act of 1976, which will add 22 more new species to the existing list of 25 species which can be felled without permission.

thank you and make your environment green for live of organism
