Kerala, Thalassery Mysuru Railway Network: Hi-tech Aerial Survey begins in Wayanad #IndiaNEWS #News
Karnataka Govt. wake up. Dont allow Karnataka air-space for survey

The proposed Railway line from Thalassery via Wayanad in Kerala to Mysuru via H. D. Kote, Kadakola and Mysuru will destroy pristine forests of Western Ghats causing irreparable and permanent damage to the ecology of the rain-bearing forests and destabilising the earth-crust of the geographical area of the Western Ghats. Just as physical survey was not permitted in Karnataka, this aerial survey too should not be permitted.

Mysore/Mysuru: After being denied permission by Karnataka despite repeated requests from the Kerala Government for the proposed Thalassery-Mysuru Railway line project, the neighbouring State has initiated a state-of-the-art aerial survey (heli survey) to map the entire route via Wayanad to Mysuru via Manandavadi to measure the extent of green cover, land use patterns and other below-the-surface details.

Following an adverse report

by the Forest Department that pristine forests of Western Ghats will be destroyed if the project is implemented, the Karnataka Government has stalled the project till now.

The ambitious 180. 46-km project, costing more than Rs. 5,000 crore, has been listed under the ‘priority projectp?&H?HH??[H?Z[]?[?Y[????][?[Z]Y
