The official investigation ordered by the Minister of Forest Eshwar Khandre for felling of 40 trees on the Hyder Ali road in Mysoru cleaned the officials of any offense.
A copy of the report, submitted on May 14, 2025, and accessible Hinda states that “to expand Hyder Ali Road in Mysuro from Kalikamba temple to an office circle along 360 meters and a width of 30 meters by 48 meters (3) 48 meters and fell 48 meters and fell to 38 meters and a width of 30 meters.
Examination of the report suggests that the investigation focused on whether the officials complied with the legal requirements to be met, while according to the permission to verify trees and whether the user agency, in this case, Mysur City Corporation, fulfilled all provisions under the law, including the required payment.
Sources stated that the investigation did not address the question of the Minister whether the authorization of the trees was authorized and whether the road was required at all.
Another main main forest conservator (planning and charge), Bengalur, visited Mysuru 22 April 2025 to investigate and review on the spot after consultation with a forest conservator, a territorial division of Mysur.
The permission to verify trees was sought on June 15, 2024 and local officials, including a forest officer officer, were carried out by Mahazar, marked a tree identified for felling on both sides of the road and submitted a report on July 22, 2024.
The species includes 38 peltophorum pterocarpum, one Samanea Saman (rain tree) and one Vachellia nilotica (gobli tree) and January 15, 2025 presented the forest conservator assistant. A notice of payment for payment of 7.76 223 GBP was issued to the Government, whose payment was issued a permission to sleep trees.
However, the carefree point was not asked by the environmentalist, whether the transport density deserved to increase roads and explored other possibilities, such as a statement of the section as a one -way route, etc.
Each of the tree was older and their role in carbon sequestration was huge. Although the forest department claimed that 10 seedlings would be planted for each tree felled to compensate, according to activists, their survival rate is questionable.
