All the natural resources, of the city and the state of
Telangana we enjoy today actually belong to future generations. We are mere
custodians. Hence, we have the responsibility of conserving and handing them
over to future generations. We do not own this invaluable resource, hence
can not destroy it too.
Many of these trees that are under discussion must have been
planted in the period of Last Nizam. Most of the conservation of natural
resources and nature has been possible due to religious, spiritual and cultural
traditions followed by human beings over generations. Where law failed in the
process of conservation, our Indian traditions have succeeded. We need our
Marri Chattu, very much part of our traditions and celebrations.
Also, we must now forget the impact on the environment, loss of
habitat for the bees, butterflies, moths, birds, simians and many other
creatures, which are solely dependent on one of the densest trees cluster of
the state. The roots of these trees also hold water.
We must also remember that the important initiative of our State
Government, Telangana Ku Harita Haram (TKHH) is not only about new plantations,
it is also about saving our old green cover, thereby saving our Oxygen Bank of
Banyans of Chevella.
Let
us find out green alternatives, without removing a single tree from here.
