Madikeri, Jan. 30: In view of the Pushpagiri wildlife and forest area coming from Bidalli in Somwarpet taluk to Kadamkallu via Vanchalu in Galibidu gram panchayat of Madikeri taluk, MLA Dr. Mantar Gowda has requested Forest Minister Ishwar Khandre to approve the DGPS survey for the construction of a road through the Parivesh portal.
The MLA, who explained these two routes in the House, also took the opportunity to provide funds to the Public Works Department in the budget to construct two roads after the survey. It takes about 120 km to reach Kadamkallu village on the border of Dakshina Kannada and Kodagu, after crossing Sulya town of Galibidu panchayat. He pointed out that the new road will help reduce this to just 20 km.
Responding to this, the Forest Minister said that after uploading the clearance information on the Parivesh portal, the amount stipulated for it should be paid, and then the compensatory afforestation amount should also be paid. If all this is done, the state government can get approval from the Union Government's Forest Ministry. Then, the Forest Department will work to release as much forest area as is required, he replied.
