Activists holding placards protested over a proposal to fell 15 trees along Agara Lake to make way for Namma Metro’s airport corridor. “As many as 776 people have opposed the proposal to cut trees. However, their views were not considered while giving approval to clear the trees,” said Sandhya, a member of the NGO Growthwatch.
