Environmentalists are up in arms against the Metro Rail Corporation's bid to take over green areas. The activists are fighting to save the 250-year-old Lalbagh Botanical Gardens. Trees over 60 years old fall in less than 60 minutes as environmentalists watch in pain. The Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation is using parts of the historic Lalbagh gardens - the city's oldest garden built by Tipu Sultan and his father more than two centuries back.
250-year-old Lalbagh gets a trimming to protect decorum and decency.
