Development at the cost of life seems to be the mantra of the government. As many as 19,348 trees will be cut for the four-laning of state highways 6 and 7 (Karnal-Ladwa-Yamunanagar road).
The Public Works Department (Buildings and Roads) has been granted permission to cut trees, but there is no mention of how the cutting of trees will be compensated.
