“Malafide or Bonafide Intent?” 🌳
Activist @LubnaSarwath asked these critical questions to the government during the SaveKBR Press Club event held on 19th May ’26.
The Government says flyovers are for “human welfare”. But what is the correct tree cover needed for human welfare in a heat-stressed city like Hyderabad? Who is supposed to protect that balance if not @GHMCOnline @TelanganaCMO @revanth_anumula @moefcc @CommissionrGHMC ?
IMD is issuing heatwave warnings. Temperatures are rising. Lakes, streams, shrubs & trees are disappearing. What should *not* be done in such a climate crisis is exactly what is being done — cutting thousands of trees around KBR.
Citizens protected KBR and Hyderabad’s ecology for over a decade. Today, without consulting citizens, SRDP has quietly become H-CITI. Fresh permissions were never transparently sought. Even before the courts, the project continues to be referred to as SRDP while critical changes are allegedly suppressed.
If a project advances by withholding information, bypassing consultation & disregarding ecological safeguards, should citizens see that as bonafide intent? Or malafide intent?
Hyderabadis are asking this question.
