The Chevella Banyan trees are more than just trees lining a road but they are an integral part of the region’s ecology, history, and culture. Their preservation is not just an environmental necessity but an opportunity for creative rethinking of how we balance development with

We have filed a follow-up petition with the NGT since the EIA was not conducted in the manner it should have been. The case is up for hearing on December 13. epaper.thehindu.com/ccidist-ws/th/…

It's so sad that local roadside vendors and age-old trees take the blame for this. People drive like maniacs on these roads. Maybe a wider road will help, but it can't come at the cost of local livelihoods and green cover. Save Banyans of Chevella is fighting the right fight.

We are deeply saddened by the accident on NH 163, which was because of speeding and rash driving. We have made representations to the NHAI for incorporating natural features including trees back in 2019. We request NHAI to follow due procedure as directed by the NGT.

This article summarises the affidavits put before the NGT. We are not against the widening of the road- all we want is thst the NHAI should consider other alignments which will be less destructive to the environment.

In a judgement handed today, the NGT clearly stated that the EIA Report submitted by NHAI is not comprehensive and directed the project be kept in abeyance till a proper Assessment, including evaluating alternate alignments is conducted and submitted. The banyans are safe for now
