Forest minister trashes report given by IAS officer Sanaulla

Forest Minister C P Yogeeshwara on Thursday insisted that illegal quarrying was indeed taking place in Kanakapura taluk, disagreeing with the contents of the Mohammed Sanaulla report on illegal quarrying. His statement comes a day after Congress MLA D K Shivakumar made public the report submitted by the senior IAS officer, stating that there was no quarrying within the forests of Kanakapura.
