Environmental activists have raised their voices against the Karnataka Tourism Department’s plans to launch new helicopter tourism. The government is planning to start heli tourism in Mysore. Last month, Karnataka Tourism Minister C.P. Yogeshwar has made it clear that government will start heli tourism in Mysore.
The heli tourism project is taking place in the forest in front of the Lalitha Mahal Palace Hotel in Mysore. For this, more than 150 trees will have to be cut down. Environmental activists have come out against this.
These trees are located on 4-acre land in Kurubarahalli. 73,000 people have come out in support of the struggle against deforestation. This includes Pramoda Devi Wadiyar of the Mysore royal family. Pramoda Devi Wadiyar has also submitted a letter to the Mysore Forest Division Conservator.
