Members of the Beedhi Badhi Vyaparigala Sangha (street vendors) protested against the state's eviction drive in Bengaluru. This highlights ongoing issues related to urban planning, livelihoods of informal sector workers, and the need for balanced development that considers all stakeholders.
An 8.61-acre area near the Cantonment Railway Station in Bengaluru has been designated as a Biodiversity Heritage Site, protecting 371 trees and preserving the area's ecological and historical significance. This safeguards it from commercial development and is expected to combat pollution and improve public health by maintaining a vital green lung for the city. The designation follows public opposition to removing trees for commercial purposes and highlights the broader issue of urban tree loss due to infrastructure projects across India, as seen in Jaipur, where trees are felled without proper impact assessments. This is especially relevant given Bengaluru's recent erratic weather patterns and the vulnerability of urban green spaces to development pressures.
