2.5k trees to be cut for Delhi-Dehradun e-way

In a major blow to the efforts of conservationists, the National Board for Wildlife (NBWL) on Tuesday gave a final clearance to the Ganeshpur-Dehradun Road (NH72A), which is an extension of the Delhi-Dehradun expressway. The project required wildlife clearance as a 19.78-km-long stretch of the road – from Ganeshpur (in UP) to Dehradun – will pass through the eco-sensitive zone of the Rajaji Tiger Reserve and the Shivalik Elephant Reserve.
