A congregation of All Saints Church and citizens groups, such as Environment Support Group and Heritage Beku, termed the decision of the Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL) to alter the design of the underground station at Vellara Junction as a “win win for all.”
The organisations said that democratic engagements helped in saving the church land and green cover on the campus.
At a press conference here on Monday, they elaborated on the efforts to preserve the sacred grove of the over 150 year old church and a special school.
