Yes, it's Vote for Lalbagh
Vaishalli Chandra. Bangalore
Without doubt, Bangalore's Lok Sabha candidates are speaking green. They told DNA about their heart-felt concern for Lalbagh, which will lose some of its old trees to the Metro. On Wednesday, a human chain of protest ringed Lalbagh. Today Save Lalbagh was the common war cry.
Krishna Byre Gowda, Congress candidate, said: "I am not for destroying a cultural or historical heritage like Lalbagh." It's time the authorities look at alternatives, he said.
Captain GR Gopinath pointed out that while Metro was needed, it could not be at the cost of Lalbagh, which he considered the city's lung space. "Lalbagh is a landscape of historical importance.Will they destroy Red Fort to bring in the Metro in Delhi?"
Vijay Kumar, BJP MLA from Jayanagar, said: "Lalbagh is an integral part of people's life; it should not be disturbed...We are pro-Metro, but not at the cost of damaging the environment."
