Unauthorised tampering with green spaces has earned the ire of the concerned residents in the Sainikpuri area, who have resolved to fight against the actions of the residents’ cooperative society.
A few residents have given a call for ‘chipko’ action on January 7, where they plan to hug the trees and mourn what they term as ‘brutal pruning and/or uprooting’ that had taken place in Sainikpuri park area.
“We also propose to ask for volunteers to conduct a tree census and photograph, and number and geotag trees in the wider Sainikpuri area,” informed Manognya Reddy, a resident.
