A 100-acre forest area in the bustling IT city of Bengaluru is in the middle of a controversy. Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has ordered that 96.3 acres of it be given to 27 different organisations of backward castes to build bhavans, hostels, educational institutions and other facilities. But local residents and activists are up in arms, demanding that the open space be converted into a pristine lung space on the lines of Cubbon Park or Lalbagh.
